Vincent Appleby reports on the first week of the season on Lough Currane…
18 Jan – 24 Jan There have been a few boats manipulating but no reports of any real action except for the odd Kelt being caught and talking of Kelts, if you catch one I would appreciate it if you would report to me and remember to put your Kelts catches down in your log book. Not all the kelts are salmon, one was an 8lb sea trout kelt that went back safely and hopefully will return again to give sport and spawn once more.
25/1/17 Anglers were not manipulating their flies or lures this day and for good reason, all fishing stations were at a standstill , reason being there was a strong Southerly gale wind blowing across the lakes with gusts up to 100 kilometres and just for the record Kerry is on a yellow alert until tomorrow and heavy rain for the SW and talking of rain the amount of rainfall yesterday there was 9.7mm. Tomorrow’s forecast isn’t much better.
That is your ration from the last week on Lough Currane, from your Gillie and the Waterville Fishery, no spin no fly’s just facts.
