Emma Stanley reports on how the trout fishing to the end of August:
29 August: Trout Angling has remained quiet as Croneen are not appearing in the numbers expected and fishermen encountered over the past few weeks are leaning towards Pike and coarse fishing over trout.
21 August: There was a well anticipated Fresh on the Little Camcor and the Brosna on Friday night which will hopefully allow Croneen to migrate successfully upstream. There should be some good reports of trout fishing from this week onwards.
“Take only memories, leave only footprints”
It has been both reported to and noted by Birr staff that significant littering is taking place in some areas in the Lower Shannon region in recent weeks. We would kindly ask all who use the water courses to bring home their rubbish or use bins provided.
