The Shanahan brothers from Gorey County Wexford visited Shannonbridge for some pike fishing
twice over the Christmas holiday period.Using fresh herring as a bait they caught a 19 pound pike
on the Suck at the end of December and last weekend they used a boat at Clonmacnois in flood
conditions and caught two pike weighing 5 and 8 pounds.
Peter Hines was happy with his fishing last week and thats all he would say.
