Fishery manager Terry Gallagher reports that following the recent flood, river levels were as good as could be hoped which was reflected in the rod catch. First up, Sean Kelly Jr ventured onto the middle river and was rewarded with a fresh 4lbs grilse. Brian Connaughton was delighted with his day on River Beat 1 after he landed 2 cracking fresh fish of 6lbs 12oz and 6lbs 8oz. Neil Spellacy returned to Costello and struck gold when he caught grilse of 5lbs and 3lbs. Mattia Cestonaro fished with great determination and was rewarded with a 3lbs bar of silver. Sean Kelly Sr was delighted with his evening’s fishing after he landed another silver bar of 3lbs 8oz. Finally, Brian Connaughton returned to Beat 1 and certainly was not disappointed to add a grilse of 5lbs to the 2 he caught the week before.
At the time of writing, passing showers are keeping the water levels where we like to see them with salmon and sea trout still entering the system.
