Shannonbridge Fishing Report Dated 24th October 2005.

Nick and his friend trolled for pike on a lake boat while based in Ely House Shannonbridge. They used trolling lures and fished the River Shannon between Shannonbridge and Banagher.

On October 6th they caught six pikes up to 8 Lb.

On October 7th they caught seven pike up to 11.75 Lbs.

On October 8th they caught three pike up to 8 Lbs and lost three pike.

Liam Moran from Kildare fished the River Shannon on October 23rd using dead bait and had a pike weighing 14.5 Lbs which was returned alive.

Marvin Weber from Poltum Germany fished the River Shannon on October 23rd in the wind and used a blinker to catch two pike that measured 56 Cm and 54 Cm.

Local angler Peter went fishing for a short time yesterday and caught a 1.5 Lb pike using dead bait. Peter reckons that the recent heavy showers have caused a change in the water temperature and have put the pike off the feed.

Heard that a pike club from Tullamore or Edenderry had a match outing on the River Suck recently but did not hear any information on catches.
