Good Autumn Fishing

Sorry for the delay in getting this update, but thankfully we were busy fishing over the past week or so.
Despite the very changeable weather and the occasionally atrocious conditions the fishing over the past few weeks was pretty good with a lot of good fish getting caught by our clients and elsewhere in the region.
Last week we had Nathy Gilligan and his friend George Palmer, both living in Mayo, out on a long promised guided trip. After a very wet and slow start, the day improved somewhat with Pike up to 17lbs coming to their lures.

Next up we had Don Teaff from North-Carolina, USA out for a day fly fishing for pike with guide Bodo Funke. The pike were really up for it that day smashing into our pike flies fished on floating lines. Don had 10 pike with two of them being double figure fish weighing 16 and 19.5lbs.
The water temperature on most lakes in the region is between 11 and 12.5 Celsius at the moment while the weather is still very mild.
