      Gary, I'll be back to the Waterville                             Fishery

12/10/20 Well today as we all know was the last day of the 2020 Salmon and Sea Trout season and sadly the Currane Drifters did not report of any action to talk of. So, on that note I do have a story of one very unhappy UK  and Currane angler Mr. Gary W Humphrey, who I might add was very disappointed that he could not come to Waterville this 2020 season, thanks to Covid 19, so Gary took his skills onto the Britain’s Rutland  reservoir and Guided by England international fly angler and no stranger to Ireland Mr. Craig Barr and I can tell you it wasn’t long before Gary caught a fine Fish, you can see more photos on www.flashattackflies.com  What can I say about this Season, well I put it in a Nutshell, not a lot because of Covid 19. Except to say a big thank you to you the followers of No Spin No Fly’s just Facts because without you good readers and supporters of the Waterville fishery there would be no blog and thank you for all your fishing story’s at the beginning of the lockdown. Now another big thank you goes to Mr. Myles Kelly and all the Inland fisheries team for their great support and last but not least on a personal note. I must give a big thank you to Mr. Paul Bourke of the Trout and Salmon Magazine. I think that’s about it for this 2020 Season and let’s hope 2021 will bring our tourists back to Ireland, especially the Waterville Fishery and I look forward to reporting to you on the No Spin No Fly’s just Facts, so stay safe and have a very happy Christmas and New Year.

                                  Currane in the deadly hour!

11/10/20 Going by the Currane spy glasses there were three boats out manipulating their flies on this calm and overcast day and going by their lack of texts I take it their reels were as quiet as my phone? Wind light and variable, humidity 77%. Yesterday’s weather, maximum air temperature 12.5 centigrade.

6/10/20

6/10/20 The Currane drifters had a strong West Northwest wind this day, that is if they headed out on the Currane Waters, going by their telecommunications it was either a no go, or no rises as the waves hit their boats? It was a different story for the Cork Killarney Lakes Anglers because they took their boats off the Lakes and headed across the County Bounds before the Covid 19 county lockdown comes into effect at midnight tonight. Wind as already stated. Yesterday’s weather, maximum air temperature 14.3 centigrade.

5/10/20 All quiet for my Noble Currane fly anglers this day, it is a pity one cannot say the same in the Covid 19 department. So, to all you Currane anglers and families over the County bounds and afar and remember to wear your lifejacket when you’re out and stay safe. Wind Northwest then veered West light with good cloud cover, followed by showers, humidity 87%. Yesterday’s weather, maximum air temperature 12.7 centigrade.

1/10/20 All the Trout headlines go to the hired out boat department of Waterville Boats and at watervilleboats@gmail.com and for good reason, an Currane fly angler, fishing out of watervilleboats@gmail.com caught and released a cracker of a Brown Trout or it could be a Sea Trout ? For the rest of the Currane anglers all quiet.  Wind light with good cloud cover, followed by heavy showers at times. Yesterday’s weather, maximum air temperature 14.3 centigrade.
