10/8/2026

10/8/2026. Another bright and sunny day for the Currane anglers. Two boats ventured out, but there were no reports of C&R action. Considering the low water levels, what do you expect? To be honest, an evening session—or a very early morning one would be my advice. Now to the Currane weather chart:Wind variable, a gentle ESE veering SE, S, and finally SSW, all under bright sunshine from dawn to dusk. Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall,1.2mm, Maximum air temperature 18.6°C, 

Sunshine 2 hours 4 minutes. And speaking of early starts, the photo tells the story, don’t take my advice lightly.     

9/8/2026

 9/8/2026. No reports from the Currane anglers of any C&R of wild Salmon or Sea Trout, and as I always say, that doesn’t mean my Noble Salmon wasn’t quietly C&R without a whisper. Now for the Currane anglers’ weather chart, Variable wind, moderate to gentle, starting WNW and veering NW, WNW, and back to NW. Overcast throughout the day, accompanied by the odd misty drizzle so light it might not even have been registered. Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall 0.0 mm, maximum air temperature 21.2°C, and sunshine clocked in at 9 hours 1 minute. And to finish, a cracking video from Wild Derrynane.

 8/8/2026, Just two Currane boats ventured out today and, sadly, all was quiet in every department. Not a murmur, not a stir, and certainly not a salmon to break the silence. Worse still, the weather forecast isn’t doing us any favours, we’re heading straight into another hot spell, and as every Currane angler knows, heat and fish rarely shake hands. Now we head down the line to Deenish Islandhttps://www.friendsoftheirishenvironment.org/library/deenish-aquaculture-licence-transcript-leave-to-appealAnd now we swing back to the Currane anglers’ weather chart, Wind variable, moderate to light from the S, veering SSW and SW as the day went on. Sunshine was the boss plenty of it, outdoing any Cloud

7/8/2026. Yes, you have it, the same old story. Or, as one Currane angler declared in an email, “the fishing in Waterville is worse than you’re reporting.” I’m still not sure whether that’s a compliment or an insult, so I’ll let you decide while I pour a stiff one. Now for the Currane Anglers Weather Chart, A variable SSW breeze drifting across the lake, gentle in nature, with reasonable cloud cover and plenty of sunshine muscling its way through as the day went on. Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall: 0.0 mm, Maximum air temperature: 18.0°C, Sunshine: 3 hours 3 minutes

6/8/2026. I don’t know how many Currane boats ventured out today, but you can be sure there weren’t many, if any considering the low water levels. And as I always say, that doesn’t mean they didn’t catch or release my Noble Salmon. Now for the Currane Anglers Weather Chart, Wind light to gentle, NW veering W, with good cloud cover and the sun breaking through as the day went on. Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall 0.2 mm, maximum air temperature 17.5°C, and 9 hours of glorious sunshine.
And now we go to A Bridge Too Far, yes, you’ve guessed it. The Mad Fisherman has delivered another cracking video for us. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
