Vincent Appleby sent us in this report of the opening week of the season on Lough Currane, where the fish were slow to get going, but the BBQ looked epic…!
17/1/2025. Great to be back on the No Spin No Fly’s just Facts zone. Well, there were 11 boats out this day manipulating their skills, but sadly, all was quiet on this opening day except for a few kelts caught. Thankfully, the same couldn’t be said in the barbeque department at Waterville Boats, as you can see by the opening day at lunchtime. Wind South moderate and overcast.

18/1/2025. Just two boats out this morning, and come lunchtime, one packed up and headed for home while the other Currane angler stuck it out, and sadly, no C&R Salmon to report. Wind, South fresh followed by good cloud cover. Yesterday’s weather, rainfall 0.0mm. temperature 11.7c. amount of sunshine 0.0.
19/1/2025. There were no boats out this day, need I say more. Wind fresh followed by strong gusts and overcast all day. Yesterday’s weather: 0.0mm rainfall, max temperature 13.0°C, amount of sunshine 3 hr. 2mins.
20/1/2025. All quiet on the C&R department, just for the record there were a few kelts caught and released. There were 4 boats out manipulating their skills.
