Osgur Grieve reported that on Sunday 7th, Mandy Broughton, Northern Ireland, caught a 3.5 lbs. grilse on Beat 6 on an Ally’s Shrimp. Mandy’s fish was sportingly released. On Thursday 11th it was Olivier Jamet’s turn! The French flyangler caught a fine salmon weighing 15.8 lbs. at the Falls Pool. This fish also fell for an Ally’s Shrimp and put up a great fight for 20 minutes. At the time of writing, the river is in spate which will hopefully result in good water levels over the next few days.
