On Sunday the 7th of July my daughter, Amy age 7 was geared up and ready to came fishing with me for common skate out of Baltimore. As she would be too small and light to hold a rod and fight a large deep dwelling, fish the only option she had was using a bent-butt rod that could be placed into the rod holder that is built into the boat for her
Amy and her 200LB Specimen skate
There was 4 of us fishing; Amy, my son Derick, his girlfriend Stephanie and myself. Amy had all the luck on the day. She was the only one to see her rod bend over and the line go screaming off the reel. The skate put up a hard battle, but the rod, reel, line and Amy were up to the job.
She has a video of her fighting the the skate on Amy’s fishing adventures her YouTube channel to see it click on the link below

Since the release of the picture and video she has proven how dedicated she is to fishing and her willpower to land large fish.

We will go straight to the Catch of the Week here. Well done to Amy Kennedy. Amy is already a seasoned angler with a huge breath of experience under her belt. Enough to put many senior anglers to shame. She is no stranger to the Irish Angling Update and with her capture of a huge common skate; she is back in our reports again. Anyone who has not seen the video of her catch is in for a treat. Fearless and fabulous, she is one of our most deserving Catch of the Week winners…
