20/5/15 There was reasonable action on Lough Currane in the fly department and I will leave the best to last so lets get to the action. We start on the South side, Mr. Tim Macey caught a fine 3 ½ lbs. Sea Trout on the fly, while fishing with his Gillie Mr. Frank Donnelly of www.lakelandshouse.com  Now we head across the Lake to the North side and Vincent’s Harbour, UK angler Mr. Marcel Guillou, fishing with his Gillie Mr. Dominic McGillicuddy of www.fishingwithdom.com caught a first class Sea Trout of 4 ½ lbs. on the fly. Now we will indulge in the Grilse department and I am open to correction but I believe this is the first one this season and if I am correct that honour goes Mr. Arthur White of the UK,  caught one of 3 ½ lbs. on the fly, while fishing with his Gillie Mr. Bob Priestley. Now to the à la carte Sea Trout department and catch of the day  goes to Mr. Ken Towner of Waterville and the UK, who caught a cracker of a Sea Trout of 8 ¼ lbs. on the fly, while fishing with his good friend Mr. Michael O’Sullivan of Waterville Boats and at watervilleboats@gmail.com  Ken was telling me that he had one hell of a battle with his Sea Trout and his Trout rod was doubled for well over 20 minutes which not surprising. Wind WNW fresh with reasonable cloud cover  

Got him!
