30/3/17 Lough Currane was on the quiet side today after yesterdays cracker of a day and for good reason, it was fairly wild out there today with a strong SW wind blowing, there were six boats out and by all accounts it was hard especially in the fly department, reason being its dam hard to hold a boat for long in those rough conditions, so today all anglers are exonerated for not procuring  a wild Atlantic Salmon. Wind as already stated, overcast with heavy showers. Amount of rainfall yesterday 6.7mm.

29/3/17 There  was some cracking fishing on the Waterville Fishery today, so lets get to the action. We start on the world Famous Butler Pool and for good reason renowned  Waterville Golfer Mr. Liam Higgins, caught a fine 12 lbs. Salmon on the fly this morning. Now for the Butler Pool quote of the day, comes from Liam’s Daughter Lynda Higgins and I quote, two in one week, not bad going, think he should pack in the golf and take up fishing, well I would beg to differ because Liam is making we pro anglers look like amateurs so my advise is stick to the golf! Now we head down stream to the mighty Lough Currane and Straight the Mouth of the Commeragh Dr. Tim O’Connor of Cork and Waterville caught a cracker of a lightening fresh 10 lbs. Salmon on the fly, while fishing with his gillie Mr. Tom O’Shea of www.flyfishingatloughcurrane.com Now we head for the trolling department, French angler Mr. Pierre Loyer of Paris, France, caught a cracker of a 10 lbs. Salmon on the troll while fishing with his Gillie and finished his day off with two fine Brown Trout. Wind South fresh and overcast with showers. Amount of rainfall yesterday 5.2mm.
