Stunning Rainbows
Gar Foley with his 23.lb 8.oz Lyreen Angling Centre Record Rainbow Trout
Mick Walsh and Darren Whelan proprietors of The Lyreen Angling Centre, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, have to be congratulated for their progressive approach since taking over the fishery. Coarse, Carp, and Game anglers are catered for and recent catches show that the cream always rises to the top. A number of large Rainbow Trout have been landed lately topped by Gar Foley’s 23.lb 8.oz lunker, which now holds the Lyreen record. Falling to a Cat’s Whisker Gar has definitely laid down a marker.
Warren Hogan with a 21.lb 10.oz Lyreen Rainbow
Not to be outdone regular visitor Warren Hogan ran Gar’s record mighty close with a 21.lb 10.oz fish which fell to a Green Buzzer imitation. With the Rye Water and the river Lyreen offering wild Brown Trout fishing, both due to open on the first of March 2010 and accessible from the centre, a feast of game fishing awaits the visiting angler.
