Lindsey Clarke reports from the RIVER DROWES – Monday 7th to Sunday 13th July 2014.
The Drowes ran at very low summer levels all week and the gauge is now reading only 2.5! There were a few rods booked into the fishery accommodation and these anglers recorded a few grilse caught for the week. Virgillio Alonso recorded 3 grilse caught over the week. These weighed between 3 & 5lb and were caught on fly or worm, 2 from the below Four Masters Bridge and 1 from the Sea Pools. On Sunday, Thomas Anyon reported a 4lb grilse caught on prawn from the Sea Pools. Fred Rolan recorded a 6lb grilse caught on fly from the Sea Pools. There was another 6 grilse caught from the Sea Pools over the week and we are awaiting details of the captors and weights etc. The forecast is for unsettled weather in the coming week and hopefully this will translate to better water levels.
