He saw a fish running through the stream & caught this one 3 casts later, so there were definitely a few fish moving. [b][u]Late report (21.00)[/u][/b] Kieran Conlon from Cork lost a similar fish at the net with Denis in the Island Stream after about 6/7 minutes - he could even see the sea-lice on its back, & lost another after about a minute on the Hut Pool on Upper Kilmurry. They saw at least half a dozen fish moving through. [b]Prospects[/b] The lower river is rising slightly (a couple of inches) after yesterday's showers, but the clarity is still excellent. The upper river came up about 6 inches & peaked during the night & is already falling. The weather forecast is dry for the week, so fly-fishing prospects are excellent. There are rods available for the coming week. For the latest info: Fishing report page [url]http://www.ireland-salmon-fishing.net/FishingReport/fishingreport.htm[/url] | |
