German Lady Angler enjoys fantastic pike fishing on the fly

Once again the pike waters around Foxford produced the goods: This time for Christin Breuker from Germany who was flyfishing for pike on several waters in the Foxford/Pontoon area including Lakes Conn & Cullin and Levally.

It was Christin's first time flyfishing for pike in Ireland and she broke her personal best twice with 2 cracking pike just under the magic one metre mark (95cm & 97cm). However, Christin landed a total of 13 pike with many between 70cm and 85cm, all on fly. Christin was using an intermediate line with roach imitations working best. She was guided by pike expert Kenny Sloan who has specialised in flyfishing for pike. To book fishing with Kenny visit www.pikemania.co.uk
