Fisheries Information Manager Markus Müller reports:
Ballisodare Fishery
Catches on the Ballisodare Fishery improved compared to last week with a total of 26 salmon caught, many of which were released. Worm and fly were the most productive methods and with almost 9 lbs. the average size was very good. Amongst the successful anglers were Michael Mullaney and Alexander Mills who both had good fish of 9 lbs. on fly. Club Secretary, Dermot Glennon, caught and released a fine fish of 8 lbs., while fly angler, Vincent Henry, enjoyed great fishing with a total of 3 salmon averaging 8 lbs. over two days. However, the best fish of the week fell to David Shanks. David’s fish weighed 11 lbs. and was caught on the worm. Higher water levels towards the end of the week impacted somewhat on angling conditions. However, the fishery should fish well as soon as levels drop. Most successful flies for the week included Willie Gunn tube flies and the Posh Tosh.
