Chris Scally of Fish Tales Guideing reports on a recent trip out with a novice angler:
It was a fresh start to Sunday, to say the least, but that didn’t stop Wendell Cruz Junior from making the trip down for his first-ever taste of pike fishing. Wendell has been living in Ireland for 20 years but has never given Irish pike fishing a go.
The temperatures had dropped significantly in recent days, so we opted to leave the lure rods in the van, and all the deadbait rods were loaded.
Roach under a float was on the menu today, and the pike loved it…
We managed to land nine pike altogether, with the biggest being 97cm and 17lb4, which is an impressive fish for a first-time angler. Wendell also managed to boat a few perch, making it a memorable day on the lake for him.
