29/7/2026. The Currane anglers were quiet today; in fact, the phone was as quiet as a lamb dozing in the shade. On the weather front, we had light winds drifting across the lake, followed by light showers.

 28/7/2026. My apologies again for the delay in today’s report. All I can say is that my WhatsApp was as silent as the lamb, no reports of C&R Salmon or Sea Trout coming from any quarter. As for the Currane angler’s weather chart, wind East, light.

27/7/2026

27/7/2026. No reports from the Currane anglers today, hardly surprising after yesterday’s heartbreak, but that doesn’t mean my Noble Salmon wasn’t quietly procured. As for the weather, a gentle W wind, later veering WSW, with overcast skies and a touch of misty rain.Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall: 0.3 mm, Max air temperature: 17.9°C Sunshine: a grand total of 6 minutes

26/7/2026

 26/7/2026. Apologies for the delay in today’s report, so let’s get straight to it. There was just one Currane boat out and, sadly, no word of any C&R from the lone angler. On the weather front: a moderate NW wind kept the lake honest. And now, to all you Mayo Currane anglers who have been waiting 75 long years to lift the Sam Maguire, congratulations to you all. A mighty day for the Green and Red.

Danny and Tim enjoying a mug of Jameson September 2025 plenty water around then

25/7/2026. Just one Currane boat out and no reports of any C&R which is not surprising considering the lake is low and talking of low today there was a seagull standing in the middle of the Butler Pool contemplating and what, I couldn’t tell you, you could say the Seagull was as quiet a the Currane angler. Now straight for the Currane anglers weather chart, wind moderate WNW and overcast all day. Yesterday’s weather, amount of rainfall, trace, maximum air temperature 19.3°C, amount od sunshine 4 hours 3 minutes.

24/7/2026. Just one Currane boat ventured out today and, sad to say, there were no reports of any C&R. Straight to the Currane Anglers Weather Chart, Gentle to Moderate variable N, veering WNW, NW, NNW, and back to NW, with good cloud cover dominating the day as the sun made periodic appearances through broken skies. Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall: 0.0mm, Max air temperature: 23.8°C, Sunshine, 12 hours and 4 minutes. And now. To finish today’s report, we hand the mic to the one and only Mad Fisherman, a man who needs no introduction and wouldn’t take one anyway. Sit back, pour whatever keeps you sane, and enjoy his latest escapade on the waves.

Now we head to the Inny.

A salmon washed up on the Inny Strand, and by the look of it, it died tangled in a poacher’s net. I received the photo the day before yesterday. My apologies to the angler who sent it; it’s a grim sight and a reminder of the damage done by those who take without respect.

23/7/2026

23/7/2026. There were three Currane boats out on this bright and sunny day, and sadly I have no reports of any C&R Salmon or Sea Trout. So, on that note, we head straight to the Currane Anglers Weather Chart, a gentle, variable ENE breeze drifting across the lake. Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall 0.0 mm, Maximum air temperature 20.7°C, Sunshine: 13 hours and 4 minutes.
