Water levels are finally receding a bit in Galway, with just 4 sluice gates now open on the weir. There appears to be a run of springers at the moment as well, with 4 fish landed for the week, and 4 fish hooked and lost on Monday alone. Mike Cullina from Galway landed a 10lbs fish on fly on Sunday, hile Longford man Phil O’Donohue had a fine 14lbs spring salmon on a spinner on Monday. Coleraine man Davy McMurtry caught an 11lbs fish on Tuesday, and yesterday Jon Menzies from Craughwell had another 11lbs fish on Tuesday, both fish taken on spinner. Anglers are meeting fish, and with water levels improving all the time, prospects for good spring fishing over the coming weeks are quite good.
