Paul Bourke and Senan Stanley were out pike fishing on Lough Derg between Christmas and New Year’s Eve..
26 January: Senan Stanley enjoyed a St. Stephen’s day lure fishing special with Daniel Nesbitt! The pair’s top 5 fish today were 110cm,103cm,103cm,102cm and 98cm. They also had plenty of 90cm-80cm fish and some chunky perch. As Senan put it, “Well conditioned pike absolutely whacking our lures on a cold Irish winters day to keep the blood pumping!”.
Also out fishing was Paul Bourke with Sean Quinlan. They also made the most of the cold and flat calm day on the lake. Sean pulled out a couple of nice ones to top it off.
29 January: This was Senan’s last lure fishing session of 2023 before heading off on a well earned holiday! Fishing with Brian and James Connaughton the top 5 fish of the day went 109cm,102cm,95cm,92cm and 91cm. There were multiple fish of 90cm and several smaller 80-70cm caught and released. Those are sweet lure fishing results on the last days of December!
