Ghillie/Guide Vincent Appleby reports from Lough Currane:
23/01/14 There were a few more reported out fishing and going by the lack of sound on my mobile phone, they all failed to register the first Salmon. Wind NW fresh and overcast with heavy showers. Just for the record the Inland fisheries reminded me to let you know that, Anglers are reminded that all kelts must be carefully handled, safely returned and recorded in your logbook.
24/01/14 There was a good flood running down the Commeragh this morning and that was all the action on the Waterville Fishery, because my Noble Anglers took to the high stool and my Noble Salmon Said cheers to that, but I know what I said, but alas this is a family blog, need I say more. Wind SW fresh and overcast and raining at times.
25/01/14 Lough Currane was on the wild side for most of the day with violent gusts, and heavy showers, and if there were any anglers manipulating, you could say they were mad dogs and Englishmen. Amount of rainfall yesterday was 16.1 mm.
26/01/14 I will not be putting today’s facts for good reason. On behalf of all the Anglers and the good people of Waterville, I would like to extend our sincere
Sympathy, to our Chairman, Mr. Michael Roden, and his family
and friends, on the recent passing of his Mother R.I.P.
27/01/14 Lough Currane has been at a standstill for the last two day’s with storm force WSW to WNW winds howling across Kerry. So we will go up to the River Flesk where Mr. Gerald O’Shea from Tralee landed 11lb fresh Salmon on a worm. All I can say is congratulations to Gerald for catching the first Salmon in Kerry in 2014 on the opening day, and may it be the first of many for the Kerry Fishery. And just for the record the facts and photo were very kindly sent to me by www.fisheriesireland.ie
That is your ration for the week on Lough Currane, from your Gillie and the Waterville Fishery, no spin no fly’s just facts.
