Fishing conditions on the River Moy didn’t change much since the previous week. High water levels still impacted on the tidal beats with the rest of the river fishing quite well.
Three generations of the Jordan family (grandfather, father & son) from the UK enjoyed 5 great days fishing on the Mount Falcon water catching a total of 22 salmon using a range of different methods. On Coolcronan, Stuart Turner, UK, caught 2 salmon at 6 lbs. each on worm, while Alan Culley from Northern Ireland had a ten pounder on Gannon’s, also on worm.
German visitor, Hans Thomas Kemp, did very well on the Cloongee Fishery where he had 8 grilse (5 released) on worm and spinner. Stuart Turner, who had already been successful at Coolcronan also scored on the East Mayo water with another grilse; this time on bubble and fly. Also on East Mayo, flyangler Des Edwards from Northern Ireland had a fine 9 lbs. salmon.
