The hot and sunny weather impacted on angling on Loughs Conn and Cullin during the week. As a consequence, angler numbers out on the lakes were low and few catch reports were received. However, Fionn Feeney, Foxford Lodge, had a nice 2.5 lbs. trout on a Green Peter off Glass Island. Eamon Gleeson and John Greham, both Wicklow, enjoyed good sport fishing dry flies catching a total of 11 trout averaging 1 lbs. (all released), while UK angler, Thomas Jordan, boated 2 fish for 2 lbs. in the Bog Bay area.
Elsewhere, Brian Foley, Galway, caught 2 trout for 3 lbs. on a dry Wulff and Gary Barbour, UK, had 6 fish, all around 1.25 lbs. on dry Olives.
