Kevin has over 30 years of fishing experience in the area and has built Melview into one of Ireland's most respected destinations for pike, coarse, and predator anglers — with a loyal following of returning visitors from the UK, France, the Netherlands, and Belgium who come back year after year.
The lodge offers B&B and half-board packages, home cooking, and packed lunches for early morning sessions. Guests receive free use of 17-foot lake boats with engines (fuel only charged), and Kevin is on hand to advise on the best waters for current conditions, arrange bait orders in advance of arrival, and offer guided tours for those who want local expertise on day one. An on-site tackle shop covers the essentials.
The surrounding Longford lakelands offer some of Ireland's most productive and undervisited pike and coarse fishing, including excellent bream, roach, tench, and perch on the Shannon system. Kevin also compiles regular angling reports for the area and is well connected within the Irish angling community.
