3/8/09 There was a fine catch by Dr Tim Gleeson who caught a 6lbs Grilse and a fine basket of Seatrout up to 3lbs with his gillie Mr Mike O'Dwyer.

7/8/09 I will go straight into the poaching department because I have missed some fine catches of the past few days, I was reading on www.Loughcurrane.com that our Manger Mr. John Murphy, is reporting two Specimen Seatrout in the 6 to 7lbs class caught by Local angler Mr. Toby Mushler of the Caherdaniel Garden Centre, and last but not least an Angler pontificating and manipulating his flies caught 8 Seatrout to his boat, and back to the present, today there were a few Seatrout caught but no real rod benders and as our Manger was saying, the big flood, has unsettled my noble game fish and there is no argument to that. Wind SSW light with reasonable cloud cover with light rain this evening, amount of rainfall 1.8mm, max air temperature 17.1c.
8/8/09 Mr Alderman of Florida USA, fishing on the famous Butler Pool and @ www.Watervillegolflinks.ie caught a fine 7lbs Salmon on the fly, fishing with his gillie Mr Mike O'Dwyer, now I will head upstream to the Big Lake/Lough Currane, there were just a few Seatrout caught on the drift. Wind SW then veered NW late this afternoon light to calm with the odd light shower, amount of rainfall 2.2mm, max air temperature 18.4c.
9/8/09 All quiet on the SW front even though there were a few Seatrout. Wind SW light and overcast and the rain came in this afternoon and it has made another flood, amount of rainfall 18.2mm, max air temperature 16.c. That is your ration for this week, from your Gillie and the Waterville Fishery. No Spin No Fly's just Facts
