Pike anglers on Lough Derg enjoyed a good end to 2024 and a strong start to 2025. Paul Bourke from Irish Fishing Tours reports…
When most people were still trying to decide what the best gift they got for Christmas was, or where they should go for New Year’s Eve, Paul Burke and and client Sean were out on Lough Derg enjoying a great day’s fishing. The pair had pike to 98cm and perch to 33cm, laughing and having the craic all day long!
Not satisfied with ending 2024 on a high Paul started 2025 with some more fine fishing. The weather was cold but clear and every strike helped to keep the blood pumping!
