Mr. Derek Hinkes

Mr. Myles Kelly with his first ever Lough Currane 4 lbs. Sea Trout  

26/6/13 I start today’s notes on a correction on yesterdays notes, an apology to Mr. Richie Stuart of www.anglersview.tv for getting his name wrong, and good friend Mr. Myles Kelly of www.fisheriesireland.ie  and I can tell you that Mr. Neil O’Shea of www.oshealoughcurrane.com demanded that the record be put straight. Now today’s facts, in the Salmon department, Mr. Derek Hinkes of the UK fishing with his Gillie Mr. Neil O‘Shea of www.oshealoughcurrane.com caught a fine Grilse on the troll. Now to the Sea Trout department, Mr, Pete Maxi, caught 3 Sea Trout, ranging from 2 lbs. up to 3 ½ lbs. and his good friend Mr. Jim Cooke caught a fine Sea Trout of 1.½  lbs. all caught on the fly, fishing with their Gillie Mr. Sylvester Donnelly of www.salmonandseatrout.com/anglersrest.html  and in Sylvester’s hired out boat department, yesterday 25/6/13 Mr. E. Scofield of the UK caught a 10 ¼ lbs. Salmon on the fly and he was also telling me that he caught a fine 3 lbs Sea Trout last week, all caught on the fly. And staying in the backdate department, local Gillie Mr. John Murphy and his client caught a nice basket of Sea Trout of which the best was 5 lbs. Wind today was all over the place and calm with bright sunshine all day.
