23/4/09 On the Salmon front, Mr Simon Chislett of the UK caught a fine 12lbs Salmon on the troll, fishing with his Gillie Mr Brod O'Sullivan of Stella Maris Guesthouse, and you can get Brod on 353(0)879227695. On the Sea Trout front and fish of the day goes to Mr Martin Clancy of Cork who caught a magnificent specimen Sea Trout of 4.470ks/9lbs13.67ozs on the troll and he was telling me that he had some battle for about 45 minutes and when you see the picture you will know why.

Wind ENE fresh to strong with violent gusts at times and overcast with the odd shower, amount of rainfall 1.6mm,max air temperature10.9c.

26/4/09 There were a good few boats out but all failed miserably in their duties in procuring my noble Salmon or one of Lough Currane's magnificent specimen Sea Trout.
