30/9/14

30/9/14 Today may have been the last day of the 2014 Salmon season but at least 3 Anglers went out with their Swan song. I start on the Famous Butler Pool and at www.watervillegolflinks.ie Mr. Paddy Barrett, was in great form again and finished his season with a 5lbs. Salmon and his good friend ended the day with a fine Grilse, and in the words of their Gillie MD, I am one of the greatest! Now we head downstream to the Big Lake/Lough Currane, There is one angler who has made the head lines many a time this Season and that is Mr. Andy Wishart of Northern Ireland and today is no exception, yes you have it, he caught a fine Grilse in the 4 lbs class on the troll, which he sportingly put back and just for the record Andy was fishing in the hired out boat department of Waterville Boats and at watervilleboats@gmail.com Now to the Sea Trout department, UK Angler Mr. Rob Elson, fishing with his Gillie Mr. Terence Wharton, caught 3 Sea Trout, ranging from Juniors up to 3 lbs. Anglers fishing with their Gillie Mr. Dominic McGillicuddy of www.fishingwithdom.com caught 1 Junior. Just for the record there were a nice Bag of Sea Trout caught by some Cork anglers, one of their Sea Trout was of a good grade so lads if you are reading the Blog, please drop me a line or even a photo if you have one. Wind W light with reasonable cloud cover this morning and good sunshine this afternoon, on that note as from tomorrow its all Sea Trout and C&R so let battle commence.
