Gavin McCarthy

Straight to the Salmon department, Dr. Jim Comerford, was in good form again when he caught a fine 5 lbs Grilse on the troll, staying in the trolling department Mr. Pat Healy of Waterville also caught a 4 lbs. Grilse on the troll. Now to the Sea trout department and catch of the day, and that goes to Cork Angler, Mr. Gavin McCarthy, who caught a specimen Sea Trout of 6 lbs. 2 ozs on the fly, and just for the record this was Gavin’s second day out Sea Trout fishing in his life, and to conquer a specimen within 12 hours is not bad, considering I know one angler it took him 40 years to catch his first. Staying in the Sea Trout department, Mr. Sean Smith of the UK caught a 2. ½ lbs. Sea Trout, while fishing with his gillie Mr. Neil O’Shea
