There was bright sunshine all day, wind SE light to calm, come 2 pm the wind veered NW light to fresh and veered again WNW fresh, and alas my Noble Anglers failed in all departments, and in the words of Mr. Neil O’Shea of www.oshealoughcurrane.com I asked Neil if he caught anything? yea Sun stroke. So on that note, we head for the update department, on the 2/6/13 Mr. Ed Kelly, caught a 8 lbs Salmon on the troll, first thing in the morning.                

6/6/13

All quiet on the SW front and with bright sunshine all day that is not surprising, so I will give you a back date, yesterday the 5/6/13. Mr. Dannie Wilster of the UK caught a 3 lbs. Grilse on the troll and caught a mixture of Juniors and Brown Trout on the fly, while fishing with his Gillie Mr. Michael O’Sullivan of Waterville Boats and at watervilleboats@gmail.com and I can tell you I got a diplomatic verbal thrashing for failing to report yesterdays catch, all I say is sorry for that, and as Nero the Roman Emperor said, pass me my weeping vase. The photos that you see are from the hired out boat department of www.lakelandshouse.com of last weeks catches.

Grilse on the troll. Now to the Sea trout department and catch of the day, and that goes to Cork Angler, Mr. Gavin McCarthy, who caught a specimen Sea Trout of 6 lbs. 2 ozs on the fly, and just for the record this was Gavin’s second day out Sea Trout fishing in his life, and to conquer a specimen within 12 hours is not bad, considering I know one angler it took him 40 years to catch his first.
