6/7/2926

6/7/2026. The Currane anglers’ binoculars were as blank as their reels today, with not a hint of action to raise the heartbeat or the hopes. As for the weather, the chart tells its own story, a light to gentle SW breeze veering WSW, keeping the lake in a mild, unhurried mood. Low cloud dominated overhead, though the sun did manage to slip through now and again, just enough to remind everyone it still existed. Yesterday’s weather facts, 1.0 hours of sunshine and a maximum air temperature of 18.1°C. hardly tropical, but enough to keep the anglers muttering about “if only”.

5 July 2026. With no reports from the Currane anglers this day, we head straight to the weather desk. The wind began in the West, later veering WSW, staying light to gentle throughout. Conditions were dominated by heavy cloud at times, though the sun made several welcome breakthroughs as the day went on. As for yesterday’s weather, the rainfall clocked in at 1.1mm, and the maximum air temperature reached 17.0°C. Another quiet day on the lake, but the weather chart kept us honest.

4/7/2026. No reports from the Currane anglers, but that doesn’t mean that my Noble Salmon or Sea Trout weren’t C&R.
Now we head for the Currane anglers’ weather chart, wind light to moderate West, veering WSW, West, followed by misty rain throughout the day.
Yesterday’s weather, amount of rainfall, 0.0 mm, maximum air temperature,17.0°C, amount of sunshine, 0.3 minutes.
Now we head downstream into the wild Atlantic, and for all you Bass anglers, click. https://www.facebook.com/share/17jN1Ps5Gi/  Now we head straight back to Lough Currane and a very serious point of view and I quote, Hi Vincent, When I read your report last night, something came back to me. I was on the lake about two weeks ago, and as I was coming off the water I think I may have witnessed some illegal activity. I didn’t think much of it at the time, but after reading your report, the memory sharpened. I remember seeing two lads, and I found myself asking why they were out there so late in the evening.

 

3/7/2026

3 July 2026. The Currane anglers headed out this morning with six boats drifting and casting their lines, but sadly there were no reports of any C&R Salmon or Sea Trout. However, there was a bit of disserving news from one angler, and I quote: “Hi Vincent, I was around the Holly, looked like it was poached last night. Loads of old twigs and weeds floating.”
Not exactly the sort of message that brightens a July evening, but it’s on the record.
Heading downstream, one angler fished the Butler’s Pool, and as of now there are no reports of any C&R there either.
Now for the Currane anglers weather chart,
wind, Gentle SW, veering WSW, followed by heavy low cloud and misty rain throughout the day. Yesterday's weather amount of rainfall 0.5 mm,Max air temperature: 16.9°C, Sunshine: 9 hours and 7 minutes

2/7/2026

 2/7/2026. My apologies for not reporting yesterday’s facts, all I can say is that two Currane boats ventured out, but not a whisper of a C&E for Salmon or Sea Trout came across the wire. Back to today, six boats took to the lake, yet once again no reports of C&R, so we head straight for the Currane weather chart. Wind was a gentle NNW, accompanied by bright sunshine that would make any angler think the fish were sunbathing rather than biting.Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall amounted to 1.2mm, maximum air temperature reached 17.2°C, and sunshine was recorded at a grand total of 1 minute.17.2°C, amount of sunshine 1 minute.

 29/6/2026. Just four boats ventured out on the lake today, and sadly I received no reports of any C&R Salmon or Sea Trout. As for the conditions, the fresh South‑Westerly wind veering SWS made its presence felt, and the lake sat under solid overcast skies from dawn to dusk, punctuated by heavy showers rolling through. Looking back at yesterday’s weather, Rainfall,1.2mm, Maximum air temperature, 17.0°C, Sunshine: 3 hours and 4 minutes. In short, the elements were lively, the cloud was stubborn, and the fish kept their secrets close.
