just back from cootehill pike fishing got 4 and missed two

biggest just under 10 pound any size in yours

macker

Biggest trout was 3lb back to lb but a nice morn fishing and its local to me only 10min down the road.I actually caught a pike well into double figure's a week ago on the same lake while trolling for trout,plenty big trout in it.Have you ever fished for pike around westmeath,there is plenty of small pike lakes hidden away that not many fish,at least 5 around me alone with good pike in them.

Good going fatman, and nice bit of fishig macker.

 

Fatman did you ever catch large pike from lean, fished it a hole load of years ago and have some one pike form it, just wondering if they are still there.

There was a 35lb pike caught in it last year,still plenty good pike in it,and they hold a few pike competitions each year.Get lough lene up on the internet it has all the news and a gallery of some of the fish,pike..trout caught last year.

A friend had a 25lber on it last year trolling for trout.

Same fellow this year had a 5 lb pike on a trout fly. I eventually found out it was on a cats whiskers, and him claiming to be a dry only man, LOL.

There was a 9lb trout caught on lene yesterday by a young lad spinning.He also had 4 other trout up to 4lb while trolling a lene minnow.The lake is fishing really well at the moment.
