A Low Butler's Pool

24/7/2022 The Currane anglers reels were quiet this day but the same couldn’t be said for their voices in the Bars as they roared Kerry to their win against Galway, all I can say it was great to see Kerry wined in the Galway Lads and bring back Sam Maguire after 8 years, worth waiting for, Sam is back home in Kerry where it belongs. Wind SW fresh and overcast all day followed by the heavy shower.

23/7/2022 The Currane anglers were all quiet this day as the Green and Gold supporters head for Croke Park for the All-Ireland Football Final and all I can say is Good Luck to the Green and Gold Jerseys and the Lads of the Kingdom of Kerry Football Team. On a fishing point of view, I hope they get a good many strikes converted into the Galway Goal and adding a good few points to their score. Wind SSW fresh and overcast all day followed by heavy misty rain at times.

23/7/2022 The Currane anglers have the Green and Gold Syndrome as the Sam Maguire is only a Hand and a Foot away from the Kingdom, the reason I say this is because that is their excuse for the lack of rod benders. Wind S light to fresh and variable and overcast followed by showers late into the afternoon.

                              The video tells the story
 

16/7/2022 As the heatwave took control of the fishing this day you could say the Salmon took a dive to cooler depths as the Currane anglers headed for the high stool and a cold beer and watched the 150th British open as Rory McIlroy shows his class and joint leader at -16 all I can say we anglers always have a good excuse. Wind South light and variable.

15/7/2022 The Currane anglers were all quiet this day even though the conditions were good this morning but once the sun broke through the Currane anglers had their suntan lotion and lures at the ready as the Wild Atlantic Salmon looked up if to say you anglers can get smoked but we’re staying cool dudes today, but as I say that, I was informed that yesterday an angler caught two Grilse on the troll. Wind NW light to calm.

Crohan RIP
