Lough Melvin was fairly quiet with only a few boats venturing forth each day but the first two Melvin salmon of the season were caught this week.
On Thursday, Stephen Kennedy recorded the 1st salmon of the season. This was a 9½lb salmon caught trolling at the sunken island near the County River. On Saturday, Brian McEvoy recorded the 2nd salmon of the season. There was also a 9½lb salmon caught trolling at Wards Point.
The forecast for the 1st 4 days of the week is for fine settled weather and I would expect a few boats to venture out in such weather.
