Backdated
to 14th April
First, my
apologies to Currane angler Mr. Axel Zurbrugg of Germany for not reporting his
fine catch sooner. While out trolling with his Gillie, Mr. Neil O’Shea, Axel
caught and released a cracking 15 lbs Salmon. A fine fish and a fine bit of
sport, and well deserving of recognition.
Now back
to the Present – 16th April
As for
today’s proceedings, the Currane anglers reported that it was wild out there,
and by all accounts all lines were slack. Not a single rod was bent, and the
lake kept her secrets firmly to herself.
Weather, Wind:
Moderate to fresh, veering to strong at times, all from the SSW Conditions:
Testing, lively, and not for the faint-hearted. Yesterday’s weather, amount of

minutes
15/4/2026. Just two Currane boats ventured out today, and conditions were decidedly rough on the lake. In the words of one seasoned Currane angler, ‘Come three o’clock we were back in the harbour and headed straight for the bar.’ That sentiment summed up the day perfectly — the weather won this round.” Wind Fresh to Near Gale SSW veered SW. Yesterday’s weather, amount of rainfall 26.8 mm, 12.5°C. Amount of sunshine none.

14/4/2026. Just two boats ventured out on the lake
today, and despite their best efforts, all lines remained slack. With the
fishing quiet, it’s only fitting that we cast our attention to a far more
important catch.
On behalf of all Currane anglers from every corner of
the globe, heartfelt congratulations to Michael and his good wife Nuala on
their 60th wedding anniversary. Now that is the catch of the day — a remarkable
milestone and a great achievement by any standard.
May their nets stay full of joy and their boat steady
on the waters of life.
