Eileen Carroll from the Macroom office reports that the long awaited rain came last week and with it came a good run of both salmon and grilse. There were about 40 salmon caught for the week ended 11 June. There was a big flood again on Sunday which made for good prospects over the last few days.
Jason Nash from tells us that there was some fantastic sport on Sunday with salmon being caught all along the river. Spinning was the order of the day on Sunday but the water level dropped to a superb height for the fly on Monday. Double figure fish dominated catches with the odd grilse mixed in for good measure.

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.
