14/6/2026

14/6/2026. Just two boats out on the lake today and not a whisper of a C&R to report, so on that note we’ll glide straight to the Currane weather chart. Wind ESE, fresh to moderate, and the sun beaming down as if it owned the place.

Yesterday’s weather, rainfall none, maximum air temperature 16.5°C, and a whopping 12 hours and 3 minutes of sunshine, enough to give even the most dedicated angler a squint.

13/6/2026. Six Currane boats out and sadly all line were slack and not surprising with the sun blazing down and hardly a cloud in site and followed by light to gentle variable NW, WNW, W, WNW, NW, NNW, N, wind. Ysterday’s weather, amount of rainfall 0.5mm, maximum air temperature 16.1°C, amount of sunshine 7 hours and 9 minutes.

Dad RIP

 Today is my Father’s heavenly birthday and I will never forget the great day’s we had fishing on Lough Currane and the River Inny. Rest In Peace Dad.

12/6/2026

12/6/2025. There were eight Currane boats out today, and their lines were as slack as a politician’s answers in parliament, plenty of movement, not much substance.
Now we head for the Currane anglers’ weather chart, wind moderate to fresh from the West, later veering WNW, bringing misty rain through the morning. Come the afternoon, anglers were treated to good cloud cover and bursts of fine sunshine. Yesterday’s weather. Rainfall 3.4mm, maximum air temperature 15.4°C, Sunshine none.

11/6/2026

 11/6/2026. There were just three Currane boats drifting the lake today, and sadly not a whisper of a C&R Salmon or Sea Trout to report  and the Butler’s Pool followed suit, keeping its cards very close to its chest. So, with the fish refusing to cooperate, we cast our eyes to the Currane anglers’ weather chart. Conditions were moderate in wind and overcast from dawn to dusk, with misty rain drifting through at intervals, just enough to dampen the hat but not the spirits. Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall 5.6mm, Maximum air temperature 14.4°C, Sunshine: 2 hours and 3 minutes

10/6/2026

10/6/2026. There were four Currane boats out today, and sadly not a whisper of a C&R Salmon between them. So, on that note, we’ll head downstream to the world‑famous Butler’s Pool. A few anglers were working the pool, and it was reported they lost one Salmon. Just for the record, I’m reliably informed that yesterday’s anglers also lost one, clearly the fish are reading from the same script.
Now to the Currane anglers’ weather chart:
Wind West, moderate to fresh, backing WNW before veering West again this evening. Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall 1.2mm, Max air temperature: 14.3°C, Sunshine: 7 hours

9/6/2026

 9/6/2026. There were no reports from the Currane anglers today, so on that note we cast our eyes downstream to the world‑famous Butler’s Pool. Great to hear there were a few fly anglers throughout day. As Shakespeare nearly said, did they or didn’t they, that is the question. Now to the Currane weather chart, a moderate NW wind, good cloud cover, and showers to keep the anglers honest, followed by a fine burst of sunshine through the afternoon.Yesterday’s weather,Rainfall 3.1mm,Max air temperature: 14.2°C, Sunshine: 5 hours 9 minutes

8/6/2026

 

8/6/2026.There were two Currane boats out today, and sadly not a whisper of a C&R Salmon or Sea Trout. You’d imagine, after the deluge we’ve had in recent days, that a fresh Grilse might at least show a bit of manners, either to the fly or the troll, or even just to boost morale. But no, the fish remained as elusive as a politician’s straight answer.
Now to the Currane Anglers Weather Chart, a Fresh West wind ruled the day, accompanied by solid cloud cover and a few hearty showers just to keep everyone honest. The sun did make the odd cameo appearance, but only long enough to remind us what we were missing. Yesterday’s weather: Rainfall: 8.8mm Max air temperature: 14.3°C Sunshine, a mighty 0.6 minutes.
