2/6/2026. There were no reports of any Currane boats out today, so we’ll take it that all was quiet on the angling front. With that, we head straight for the Currane weather chart: wind moderate NW veering WNW, accompanied by good cloud cover, and if the sun did manage to break through, it certainly didn’t overstay its welcome. Yesterday’s weather: rainfall 15.8mm, maximum air temperature 15.8°C, and sunshine none. Just for the record, if there’s a late report, I’ll update with a Currane Angling News Flash. At least 1 fish caught on the troll 2 boats out

1/6/2026.
Just two Currane boats ventured out today and, with no reports on their
manipulations, I’ll take it as gospel that their lines were slack and their
reels silent the Currane choir was clearly not in a singing mood.
News just in: over the Bank Holiday there were a fair few brownies caught and a
couple of seatrout met for good measure, so at least someone was doing the
business while today’s anglers were perfecting the ancient art of practising
patience.
Now for the Currane Weather Chart: a variable, moderate WSW wind, good cloud
cover throughout, and misty rain drifting across the lake like a shy guest who
refuses to leave.
Yesterday’s Weather, Rainfall: 3.2 mm, Maximum air temperature: 16.7°C,
Sunshine: 0.2 minutes. May Total Rainfall 81.0 mm.

30/5/2026. Just one Currane boat out today and sadly no C&R Salmon or Sea Trout reported. So, on that note, we head straight for the Currane anglers’ weather chart. Wind was moderate to fresh from the SW, throwing in gusts up to 45 km/h for good measure. Misty rain took command for most of the afternoon before the sun finally broke through, a pity I can’t say the same for the Wild Atlantic Salmon, and the Sea Trout weren’t exactly queuing up either.
Yesterday’s weather:
Rainfall: 0.1 mm
Max air temperature: 17.7°C
Sunshine: 9 hours and 7 minutes.
And now your
“one Currane boat out on the lake” joke:
A lone Currane angler was asked how the fishing went.
He replied, “Well, the wind nearly blew me home, the rain nearly drowned me,
and the sun nearly burned me — but the Salmon? Ah, they didn’t nearly do
anything!”

29/5/2026 The Currane anglers were as silent as a church on a Tuesday, not a whisper, not a murmur, not even a rumour of a rise. With no reports coming in, we’ll cast straight over to the Currane weather chart. Wind was a moderate SW veering SSW, giving decent movement on the water, accompanied by good cloud cover and plenty of sunshine breaking through to keep the photographers happy, if not the anglers.
Yesterday’s weather: 0.6mm rainfall, maximum air temperature 16.7°C, and 2
hours and 2 minutes of sunshine — just enough to keep the grass honest. Currane
Joke of the Day.
A Currane angler walked into the pub looking miserable.
The barman says, “No fish again today?”
The angler replies, “Fish? I’d settle for a pull at this stage, even the midges
won’t bite me.

28/5/2026.
Just one Currane boat ventured out today and, by all accounts, every line
stayed slack as a priest on a Monday morning. On the Currane weather chart, the
wind was a variable, moderate South, veering SSW to SW, with good cloud cover
and the sun breaking through whenever it felt like showing off. Yesterday’s
weather: rainfall 0.0mm, maximum air temperature 29.6°C, and a blistering 14
hours and 5 minutes of sunshine, no wonder the fish were hiding in the shade.
As for the Currane reels, they were quiet enough to hear a midge sneeze. The
same can’t be said for the Mad Fisherman, his video is anything but silent. Click, watch, and enjoy
the madness.

27/5/2026. Another roaster of a day on Lough Currane, and you wouldn’t need to be a rocket scientist to know the facts — but just in case anyone missed the memo, here they are.
We head straight to the Currane weather chart: a moderate and variable ESE
breeze, doing its best to pretend it mattered, while the blazing sun took full
command with only the odd scrap of cloud for company. Yesterday’s weather,
Rainfall: None at all, Max air temperature: 24.7°C, Sunshine: 15 glorious
hours. you could say
a day so bright even the fish were reaching for sunglasses.

| Sea anglers delight Ballinskelligs Bay today |
25/5/2026.The Currane Salmon and Sea Trout anglers would have been well smoked had they ventured out today, with the sun blazing down on the Waterville fishery and temperatures hitting a scorching 30°C. Add in a light, variable ENE breeze that wandered off through SSE, SSW, SW, WSW, W, and back to WSW for good measure, all under a crystal‑clear sky, and you can understand why the Currane anglers wisely took it easy. Even the fish were probably sunbathing.
Yesterday’s weather:
No rainfall to report, maximum air temperature 21.3°C, and a marathon 14 hours
and 7 minutes of sunshine — enough to make even the most dedicated angler
consider a cold pint over a hot rod.
