 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.

28/6/2026. There were four Currane boats out today, and one boat saved the day by reporting two fine Sea Trout caught and released on the drift. As for the rest of the fleet, their reels were about as lively as a sleeping sheepdog.
Now we head for today’s Currane weather chart: a fresh WSW wind veering West, heavy cloud dominating the skies with the sun sneaking through whenever it felt brave enough.
Yesterday’s weather: rainfall 4.8 mm, maximum air temperature 17.2°C. That’s your lot, proof that even when the fishing is quiet, the weather still insists on giving us plenty to talk about.

 Breaking News just in

Currane fly angler Mr. Colin Lynam, fishing with his Gillie, takes all the honours today with a cracking two Salmon 8 lbs and the other at 6 lbs, both caught on the fly, both sportingly returned to fight another day. As if that wasn’t enough to keep the Currane flag flying, Colin also struck gold again the fly with three fine Trout, likewise all released. You could say the lake was in a generous mood, and Colin made sure to cash in while the going was good.

 26/6/2026. There were five Currane boats out today and by all accounts their lines were as slack as a sleepy salmon on a Sunday, so on that note we head straight for the Currane weather chart. Wind was variable, light to moderate from the ESE, veering SSW, S, SSW, and back to S, all under heavy cloud with the sun breaking through when it felt like teasing the anglers. Yesterday’s weather: rainfall trace, maximum air temperature 28.5°C, and 11 hours 8 minutes of sunshine. Breaking News just in, 3 Salmon were caught on The Burlers Pool

 25/6/2026. Another roaster of a day on Lough Currane, and unsurprisingly not a whisper of a report from the Currane anglers. With the heat beating down, you could hardly blame them, though I wouldn’t rule out the odd stealthy C&R artist quietly mending a rod or two while pretending to melt. Now to the Currane weather chart: a variable moderate SE wind to start, veering SSE, then slipping into a gentle SSW, SSE, SE, SSE, and finally a surprise WNW cameo. All of this accompanied by bright, unapologetic sunshine until evening, when thunder decided it wanted the last word. Yesterday’s weather: rainfall a token 0.1mm, maximum air temperature a sizzling 25.0°C, and 6 hours 2 minutes of sunshine. Now we head for backdates, over the last two weeks, thanks to the Inland Fisheries Ireland .There have been a few salmon reported caught on Lough Currane in the last couple of weeks. Four grilse, included a fin clipped hatchery fish, were caught for the week ended 14 June. Last week Anglers reported 2 salmon and 2 sea trout. Sunday was the longest day of the year and according to our Noble Gentleman, Mr Abbleby, there were a “…whopping 13 hours and 8 minutes of sunshine, you could say there was enough light for the fish to read the Farmers Journal twice over and still ignore the flies. A grand day for the longest day, even if the Salmon were playing hard to get.”

 24/6/2026 There were four Currane boats out on this absolute scorcher of a day, and fair play to UK Currane angler Mr. Martin Henderson, who kept his cool while working his flies. It didn’t take long before his rod was bent double with a fine Grilse, the first Grilse of the Season, no less. A big congratulations to Martin and his gillie on breaking the 2026 duck.Just for the record, Martin wasn’t finished there, he also caught and released a cracking 1½ lb Sea Trout to round off his trip in style. As for the rest of the fleet, I think it’s safe to say their lines remained slack and their tempers tested.Now for the Currane anglers weather chart:Light variable NE wind veering ESE, SSW, WSW, back to SSW, then SSE and finally NNE. Good cloud cover first thing this morning, but by midday the bright sunshine took full command of the lake.Yesterday’s weather, Rainfall 0.0 mm, maximum air temperature 19.5°C, and a blistering 12 hours and 6 minutes of sunshine.

23/6/2026

23/6/2026. Six Currane boats headed out today under a sun so fierce it could have melted the paint off a paddle. The Currane anglers gave it their all, lures out and hopes high, but by day’s end it was clear who landed the only victory was the blazing sun itself. You could safely say my Noble Currane anglers were well and truly browned off, and who could blame them in that heat.

Now for today’s Currane anglers weather chart: a gentle NNW wind veering NW to NNW as the day went on.
Yesterday’s rainfall was a straight 0.0 mm, maximum air temperature a sizzling 23.4°C, and sunshine clocked in at 8 hours and 7 minutes.
A scorcher in every sense, except, sadly, on the end of the line.
