The Delphi Fishery opened on the 1st of February, with good water conditions for much of the month. Fisahing has been slow enough, with the first salmon falling to the rod of well-known Westport angler Toby Gibbons on the 12th. The lovely fresh fish took a Posh Tosh tube fly in the Waterfall Pool and was approx. 9lbs. Toby said he “got a great batlle from it, but thankfully it was well hooked”. Our congratulations to Toby on his achievement.
A second fish followed on the 4th of March, a nice fish of approx. 9lbs, caught in the Meadow Pool on a Night Star by Werner, and a third to the same rod on Sunday the 8th, just shy of 8lbs from the Rock Pool, again on a Night Star.
And on Wednesday morning this week, Alan Molly landed a fine fish of approx. 10,5lbs from the Waterfall Pool on a Tosh.
Fishery manager David McEvoy reports lovely water at the time of writing, and hopefully fishing picks up further now.
Go fishing…
At Delphi Lodge, with many years of experience with the timing of the best runs of fish, we have in place a price system that offers both great value fishing and lets our anglers know when they have the best chance to catch a fresh run spring salmon or a summer grilse or Delphi sea trout.
