Moy Fishery manager Declan Cooke reports on the first spring fish from the Moy Fishery in Ballina.
Finally, water levels have dropped sufficiently to allow wading on the Ridge Pool and we have just recorded our first salmon.
The spring fish was caught by Gareth Byrne from Dublin and weighed 6.5lbs. The successful fly was a size 10 Conehead Ally’s Cascade tube. We’re particularly pleased with the fact that this season’s first was caught on fly and we’re hopeful there will be a few more by the end of the week now that conditions are suitable
