There was a fine 6lbs Salmon caught on the troll by Local Gillie, Mr. Bob Priestly, and if a ever an Angler deserved my Noble gentlemen the Salmon Bob did, and the reason I say this is because Bob was telling me that he has caught 46 Kelts this season, that’s some going. Wind SW light to fresh and overcast with light misty rain.

The Salmon department opened up on Lough Currane today, and Supreme Gillie Mr. Brod O’Sullivan of Stella Maris Guesthouse Waterville, takes all the head lines, and for a good reason, he caught a fine 11lbs Salmon on the troll going towards the bridge, and Brod was telling me that he had a good battle with my Noble Gentlemen the Salmon and the rest is history, and as Brod has said to me many times in the last 40 plus years you can’t beat experience and there is no argument to that.
