Owenmore running low but good night fishing for seatrout

Frank Maunsell reports on the conditions and prospects on the Owenmore Fishery in Co. Kerry…

We have rain due on Wednesday which is badly needed. The water levels are low but the night fishing was excellent. The seatrout were still travelling even with the water levels so low. The seals are very active down in the estuary. I counted 14 in one area during the week and they are creating havoc with the fish. Hopefully the next flood will allow most of these fish up the river.

There are approximately five miles of fly fishing along the main part of the Owenmore River in Kerry, with 33 named pools and an additional 180 acres of lake fishing in this Kerry beauty spot. The salmon, grilse and sea trout begin to run in April. The runs continue through spring and summer into early October.
