Fisheries Information Manager Markus Müller reports from the Burrishoole Fishery – w/e 3rd August 2014
Fishery manager, Pat Hughes, reported good fishing for the past week. Some localised heavy showers in the Nephin Beg Mountains resulted in lower salinity levels in Lough Furnace and, as a consequence, a good number of salmon were caught on the Burrishoole Fishery.
Amongst the successful anglers were S. Cassidy, T. Gibbons, D. Lennon (two fish), D. Nevin (two fish) and S. O’Malley (three fish). All fish weight between 4 lbs. and 6 lbs.
However, it was G. Abrahams who stole the show with his 4 lbs. grilse as this was the first ever salmon for the 82 year old angler. His son Myles completed the family success with two more grilse on the same day. Four sea trout were also caught and returned for the same period.
