On Tuesday, Virgilio Alonso Elez  logged a 4lb grilse caught on prawn from the Sea Pools.

On Friday, Frank Doherty registered a 7¾lb salmon caught on a fly.

On Sunday, Darryl Kennedy recorded 2 fish caught and released. These weighed 4 & 12lb and were caught on prawn from the Money Hole & the Black Hole. Chris Sinclair accounted for a 5lb grilse caught on shrimp form the High Bank.

With wet conditions forecast for the earlier part of the week, water levels in the Drowes will remain good next week.
