Markus Muller from the Inland Fisheries Ireland Office in Ballina reports on the salmon fishing on the Owenmore River and Carrowmore Lake.

Owenmore River & Carrowmore Lake

Weather conditions in Bangor were not favourable for salmon angling but some anglers enjoyed success including Glenn Wood, Lisburn fishing Carrowmore Lake who had two  salmon, one of which he released.   Anglers also reported reasonable  sea trout fishing on Carrowmore over the week.   With low water and very little rain, the Owenmore River proved difficult. Oisin O’Sullivan, Tullamore had two salmon from the river, his best weighing in at 9 lb., both of which were returned.
