Despite calmer and brighter conditions, Carrowmore Lake saw another good week with a total of 19 salmon caught, 7 of which were released. Amongst the successful anglers were Brian Butler, UK, Jack Gillespie, Northern Ireland and Mary Harkin, Dublin. However, it was Christin Breuker from Germany who had a very memorable day on Carrowmore Lake catching her first Irish salmon. Christin is a regular visitor to the West of Ireland but hadn’t fished for salmon in loughs before. Her 8 lbs. salmon took a Jaffa fished on the point. Christin hopes to return during the summer to try her hands at some river salmon fishing.
