SUPER SHANE SCORES DOUBLE TWENTY

Well what can we say about the day young Shane Lyon has had!stuff dreams are made from.On his first club outing of 2010 Shane was fishing with dad Ewen and granddad Rab,losing a nice low double early on Shane was more than keen to get his bait back out in the same spot in the hope of landing his first ever pike,after a short while another run and this time he managed to land her and a new p.b as its his first pike at a mighty 24.14lbs(pictured above).a massive well done young man but shane was'nt done yet a few hours later just to top the day off he managed to winkle another cracker at 22.11lbs.

Dad Ewen keeping a firm grip on this one as she was a bit lively and Shane wants to keep his fingers a while yet!

What a fantastic catch Shane,on behalf of the club we wish you a massive congrats again and a big happy birthday(11)for monday,be hard to beat them pressies.
