Unofficial practice for the 2024 World Predator Fishing Championships is over for me here in Ireland… This place is going to be good. Today while attempting to land a 60cm pike, a ‘major’ went cannibal mode and decided that the 60cm fish was prey. This is real predator fishing here, the way I like it!. It was good to get on the water before the closed period and get a feel for it. Huge thanks to my new friends for life, Simon and Marc, for showing me around! For now, I’m headed off to Portugal to join forces with my girls for the next couple weeks. Reinforcements from Team USA are coming soon to do some more homework, and then back to Ireland beginning of October for the big dance! #fishtheworld #letsgo #teamusa
