10/8/14 Straight to today’s facts, Mr. Peter O’Donnell of Hull, while fishing with his gillie Mr. Neil O’ Shea of www.oshealoughcurrane.com  caught 6 Sea Trout ranging from Junior Class up to 3 ½ lbs. and there were a few boats manipulating and I am sure some of them caught the odd Sea   Trout, but sadly they weren't manipulating their fingers at the end of their day. Now I go to the poaching department of  www.loughcurrane.com as promised for yesterdays results on the Lough Currane Fly Championship 2014!  All the facts Courtesy of  www.loughcurrane.com  The Lough Currane Championship 2014, held this weekend,  Friday 8th and Saturday 9th August, was fished by 22 competitors in very hot and challenging conditions. The winner this year was John Hallstead, a regular participant and a previous winner! He caught two good Sea Trout, including one over 5lbs, which won him, not only the Ernest Appleby cup for the longest fish but a voucher for €1000 worth of fishing tackle courtesy of John Buckley's Emerger Tackle. The competition was followed by a lively dinner evening at the Waterville Inn. Altogether another very enjoyable event! We extend our thanks to Derek Evans, angling correspondent for the Irish Times, who kindly agreed, once again to present the prizes, to Damien Duff and his staff at the Waterville Inn for an excellent meal, to Vincent Appleby for once again photographing and donating the excellent framed photos of the event and last but not least to our hard working secretary and his fellow committee members, who helped to ensure the event ran so smoothly.
