David McEvoy tells us of the great week had by anglers in Delphi this week:
28/05/2013: Fishing has continued to be excellent since my last update. We have had fish every day and there have been some notable catches included.
Amanda Higgins got her piscatorial career back on track when she had a sea liced fish of 8lbs2ozs off Finlough on a Delphi Collie, last Tuesday the 21st.
On the 22nd Pat O Dwyer had a fish of 6lbs14ozs off the Waterfall (which is definitely back to it’s former glory, having only had 4 off the pool last year, compared to 10 so far this season). Not to be outdone by his wife, Niall Higgins landed a beautiful sea liced fish of 10lbs on a Delphi Collie again from the Waterfall.
We had three fish on the 23rd, the first off the Whin pool of 6lbs13ozs taken by Arthur Jardine on a Cascade. The next two were off Finlough by the dynamic duo of Simon Albertini and Chilton Owen. The fish weighed in at 5lbs10ozs and 7lbs 14ozs respectively and were taken on a Cascade and a Delphi Collie.
There were six landed on the 24th, five off the river even though the water was 25 and one off Fin. Amanda Higgins was once again on the score sheet, with two from the Whin pool in 20 minutes, both on a Delphi Collie weighing in at 6lbs11ozs and 8lbs13.5ozs. Elizabeth Thompson also had a fish from the Rock pool of 8lbs on a Cascade. Charles Dring saved his week at the death with a 9lbs7ozs fish from the Deadmans, on a Delphi Collie and Paul Welling had one of 5lbs8ozs from the Whin again on a Delphi Collie.
