Terry Gallagher reports from Costello & Fermoyle:
Sea trout fishing continues to improve at Costello in recent weeks and the salmon are still appearing on the tides. To date, the fishery has recorded 70 salmon and 208 sea trout (101 of which were caught since July 25th). No great size to the sea trout but all were fresh and plump scrappers. Considering the scarcity of sea trout up until recently, we are very pleased to see this late run which appears to be ongoing. Water certainly is not in scarce supply as another huge flood is making its way through the system following heavy rainfall over the August Bank Holiday weekend.
Highlights over the last week include: Eamon O’Brien and Myles Costello, who fished Glenicmurrin and Fermoyle loughs over a few days and recorded 92 sea trout and 2 salmon. David McCloud was all smiles after landing a 5lb salmon on River Beat 1 as was Kevin Coleman who caught 11 sea trout on Glenicmurrin Lough. Finally, Geoffrey Fitzjohn was back on River Beats 2 & 3 and landed fish of 12lbs & 8lbs.
