Mr. Dan McGillicuddy RIP


13/2/2023 I start this week on a sad note on the passing of Mr. Dan McGillicuddy RIP and Dan may not have been a Gillie but he knew every angle of Salmon and Sea Trout fishing, in the sixty’s He worked in the Finglas Hatchery, Waterville Golf Club and Waterville House. On a personal note, I have one good fishing story of Mr. Dan McGillicuddy RIP, When Dan was in his teens he was watching an angler on The Butler pool playing a cracker of a Salmon and shouting for his Gillie to come and gaff his fish, the Gillie was nowhere to be seen so Dan ran down and gaffed the Salmon with one swipe of the Gaff and left the angler dumfounded with his speed. So on behalf of the Currane Anglers  all the good people of Caherdaniel, Waterville and all of Kerry and our Sincere Sympathies to all of Dan’s family, especially Dominic, Ger, Paul, Donie, Anne, Finbar and Eamon. Sadly, missed by his daughters-in-law, son-in-law, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, sisters Sheila and Breda, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, extended family, kind neighbours and friends.

 

On Salmon and Sea Trout notes I will give all the facts tomorrow  in respect of Mr. Dominic McGillicuddy and the passing of his Dad.
