Kieran O'Driscoll, Castletownbere, whose daughter Mairead is settled in the US and as a family they love to go rod fishing. Kieran, went along also - a busman's holiday as it were. Raymond Higgins, son in law, caught a 4 ft, 43 lb striped bass on one of their fishing trips off Shelter Island - see picture below and right. Kieran jnr. seems to have fishing in his blood - 2 generations on - across the atlantic. The fish was caught by rod and reel, live lining with porgies |
