Fishing Reports

FOR WEEKENDING SUNDAY THE 10 June 2007

Salmon and trout reports

RIVER LAUNE BEATS 1 AND 2

No catches to report. 

KILLARNEY LAKES

No catches to report due to low water levels.

RIVER LEE

17 fish reported caught mainly at the weir all on shrimp.

ILEN RIVER

1 fish caught on Saturday weighing 7 lbs. on the spinner.

RIVER BANDON

5 fish caught on the river with the biggest fish weighing in at 11 ½ lbs. all caught on shrimp.

LAUNE ANGLERS WATERS

Angling effort up considerably because of improved water conditions.  There were two fish reported for the week one on Wednesday and one on Friday both fish were caught on Laune Anglers' Waters. 

Water has remained well up all the week but taking the good water and notwithstanding the very fine weather more fish should have been encountered.

Most people had given up by Saturday and angling effort was reduced.

I have now fished the Laune 15 times from the start of the season and I have not had a pull yet.

My first cousin visiting from Boston was fishing for the week and he failed to meet a fish.

Item of interest: I saw a dead Lamprey Eel on the bank of the river which had been partially eaten by an otter presumably, this is the first time I have seen one of these in years.  (Report from Billy Downs, Hon. Secretary of the Laune anglers).
