'True Enniskillener' lands massive 18lb drowes salmon
niall_b73 replied to niall_b73's topic in Fresh & Salt Water Fishing
"Water levels are high on the River Moy with only some fish reported. Rising water levels have hampered angling efforts on the Moy in recent days. However, the East Mayo Anglers Association water produced two salmon for the week. The first spring fish of the season retained on the Association’s water was caught by Mark Kirwan, Co. Kildare, and weighed 8 lbs. Swinford anger Gerry Hegarty took the second of the week on the Association’s waters, a fine fish of 12.5 lbs. Water levels on the lower Moy are high at present and are expected to rise further in coming days. Bryan Ward" nia -

"River Suir - water up. Philip Maher reports from his River Suir Fishery: A lot of rain in the midlands rose the river about a foot with a good colour. This should bring in a few more Springers." niall_b73 -

A nice spring salmon of 16 lbs. reported from the River Suir. Philip Maher reports from his River Suir Fishery: A nice 16 lbs. springer taken on fly on my Clonmel beat on Sunday. Still a lot of kelts in the river and great care should be taken when handling them. Hopefully the rain over the next few days will stir things up a bit. http://www.fishinginireland.info/update/salmon_angling.htm#suirsalmon niall_b73 -
The "true Enniskillener", who saw the first light of day in Townhall Street more years ago than he probably cares to remember, had cause to celebrate last week when he landed this magnificent 18 pound 9 ounce salmon from the River Drowes. It is the biggest fish of the season so far from the popular river and was caught on a Green Butt Cascade fly in the Crooked Hole, close to the Four Masters Bridge near Kinlough. Brendan made history back in 2006 when he became the first angler ever to catch the first salmon of the New Year - and put it back into the river! Brendan Burns with th

By Angling Times Fish Catches 25 March 2011 12:00 One of angling’s most respected big- fish anglers has described the capture of this huge 30lb-plus pike as one of his ‘greatest achievements in the sport so far’. Landed from Dorset’s Milton Abbas Lake, the 33lb 8oz predator was caught by specimen angling legend Terry Lampard, and was a capture that delivered the seven-times Drennan Cup winner a ‘double whammy’ of angling feats. As well as being a new pb for the species – beating Terry’s previous best of 31lb 12oz from the River Wye by just under 3lb – the

By Gofishing.co.uk Coarse 29 March 2011 00:00 Fifty years in search of a monster pike and when you finally set the hook in your 'dream' the giant slips the treble. Enought to break a man? Not Angling Times' columnist Terry Knight, who went back the following day and hit the jackpot with a 43lb 13oz specimen pike! Angling Times were there every step of the way to capture the agony and ecstacy of the adventure on film... Terry was tackling Wykeham Lakes, near Scarborough, a venue that several weeks ago produced a 45lb 14oz pike to local big-fish expert Wyndon Coole.
