Prospects & General Comments:
Uk Anglers, Andy Nicholson, Jason Ashcroft, Edd Middleton and Kevin Evans, staying in Catchcart Lodge on the Belle Isle Estate County Fermanagh from the dates of the 5th of March through to the 9th, enjoyed some amazing sport, predominately Pike fishing, catching in total 150 pike, several were double figures with the largest tipping the scales at 16.5lbs and one or two very big fish lost. Methods spinning, plugs, Jerk Baits, wobbling, dead baits, trolling, were responsible for most of the fish but a few came to the fly. Some good bags of roach and skimmer bream were caught, when not pike fishing, this trip easily topped last years Pike tour for sheer numbers and quality, the upper Erne system literally teeming with pike and bait fish and can only improve as the season progresses.
