28/4/2024. The
Currane anglers were all quiet in all departments this day. As you can see by
the photo of the Bull rock, the Lough Currane waters are badly in need of a
good flood. Wind WNW fresh, followed by the odd heavy shower. Yesterday’s
weather, amount of rainfall 00, amount of sunshine 13.0, maximum air
temperature 11.4c.
27/4/2024. The Currane angler’s photography today gives you a perfect view and example on the pros and cons of fishing today. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to know that the Currane anglers lines were slack? On today’s weather the pictures tell the story, So you can say without any fear of contradiction that the Currane photographer has an Eagle eye. Yesterday’s weather, amount of rainfall, Tr, amount of sunshine 6.4, maximum air temperature 11.7.
Update
1 boat had 11 brown trout on the fly biggest 1 1/2 lbs. Met a good few more.
26/4/2024. The
Currane anglers were all quiet in all departments this day. Wind NE light to
fresh, followed by reasonable cloud cover. In the past I have been criticized for
mentioning other fishery’s, well tough, because in my opinion all fishery’s of
Ireland should be important to all anglers, the reason I say this is because I
had a text sent a week ago and yes I have failed miserably in my duties, so the
stage is yours Phil.
Good evening,
Vincent, Thank you for posting some of my recent comments regarding the ongoing
saga at the Upper lakes with Chris & the Mad Fisherman. They’re a great
bunch of guys who’ve really put the Waterville lakes on the map in what are
difficult times. Considerate & decent people. I do hope this all gets
sorted soon. Such a sad shame to see at present. On a different note, we have
our own battles further north up in Leitrim & beyond on the great Irish
wild trout loughs.
The loughs
have so many problems today, be it pollution, Algae blooms, invasive species,
climate change….. they need help. There are a lot of competitions on the lakes,
and in the past the lakes were strong enough to absorb the pressure, but not
anymore. The trout “killing competitions” are now a threat to the loughs future
and Catch & Release in the trout competitions is important. I don’t mean
catch and release for pleasure anglers who enjoy taking some fish for the pot
or smoker. I do this myself on a controlled basis. However, on competition days
when winds & conditions ate favourable it can lead to huge fish kills that
put. pressure on the great wild loughs of Ireland. With modern technology that
wasn’t available to our predecessors, we can use this technology to run
successful catch & release competitions as an alternative.
I am helping
organise a show piece C&R competition at Rossinver Fishery on Lough Melvin
in Leitrim. It’s a major event from 6th -9th June. We’ve got really big prizes
just to emphasise that it is possible to do this on the big stage despite what
others say. I hope you can appreciate why we are doing this. and hopefully give
it your blessing & leg your followers know about it.
