For the week ending 23 June there were 3 salmon reported. The best salmon was 15lb, all were taken on shrimp. There was heavy rain over the weekend and the river rose by a foot.
Since then Jason Nash from the Bandon Angling Association has seen a lot fish moving. Many anglers have met salmon in the last few days. Unfortunately, more salmon have been lost than landed but that’s fishing! It seems that the younger anglers in the club have enjoyed the better fishing too. Water levels have dropped again but there is still some nice colour in the river.
Go Fishing…
Bandon Angling Association have set up a guiding service in conjunction with Jason Nash, Peter Aspinwall and Phil Dewey. Details of the guiding service are provided on the website and they are looking forward to making memories and enhancing people’s fishing experiences on the river Bandon. Day tickets and club membership are also available.

Kilcoleman Fishery, Enniskeane, is renowned for its hospitality. The owners David and Patricia Lamb make a particular effort to make their guests feel at home. Past visitors have described the atmosphere as ‘laid back’ and the accommodations as ‘cosy’. Kilcoleman is “fly only” throughout the entire season. However, in certain water conditions, spinning is permitted for salmon. Trout angling is “fly only” at all times.
