With fish preoccupied with spawning catches have been generally poor over the last 2 weeks. Water levels are now returning to normal after some much needed rain over the last few days. Some stretches upstream of Portumna bridge are still producing bream and hybrid nets of up to 50lb per session.
Photo attached shows 12 year old Roman on holiday from Stuttgart with his first Shannon Pike while trolling near the bridge. He also caught several good Roach and Hybrids feeder fishing from the banks of the Shannon near Fairyhill.
