A draw was held for the final allocation of Brown Tags for the taking of salmon on the Roughty River (Kerry), on Wednesday, August 6th, 2025.
The requirement to hold a brown tag is set out in Wild Salmon and Sea Trout Tagging Scheme (Amendment) Regulations, signed into law by the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications, Eamon Ryan, T.D.
A total of 33 valid entries were received from salmon rod licence holders.
As the number of tags available for distribution was sufficient to cover the number of applicants, all valid entrants were allocated a tag.
The Brown Tags will be issued by post over the coming days.
