Good fishing reported at Portumna ahead of festival

Padraig Carroll caught up with some anglers who braved the rain at Portumna on the Shannon recently. They reported that the river is fishing really well with 50lb bags of roach, bream and hybirds showing up regularly on the feeder rod with plenty of bait added in; main hook bait used was maggot and castor fished over groundbait.
