Dear Sirs, I am pleased to report that everything is going right for us at the minute.  We are having prolonged periods of high water and good fishing conditions to boot.  There is magnificent activity on the fish counter with plenty of fresh grilse and sea trout entering Lough Inagh.  The seatrout are lice free and the salmon are net mark free so all is well thank god.  The seatrout are mostly small(.75 lbs) but I have seen some 1.5lbs fish in the last day or two.  The lower beats on the fishery(greenpoint, pine island and glendallogh butts) are holding plenty of Salmon, and I have seen six different grilse on the Derryclare butts this morning.  This fishery will explode in the coming days, I have no doubt about that.......

 

Notable catches;

John Connolly(Mayo); Fished for 2.5 days and landed 3 fresh grilse 4lbs,5.75lbs and 6.75 lbs on a size 12 cascade on the river beats.

Gregory Treusch(Switzerland); caught a 6.5lbs grilse on greenpoint on a size 8 cascade.

Joe and Ronan Creane(Galway) fished inagh for 2 days and recorded 10 seatrout and 18 brown trout, best patterns were claret bumble and hoppers.

Kevin Cronin(Dublin) caught and released a brown trout of about 7lbs on a bann special shrimp fly on Inagh.  This was Kevins largest trout ever in his long angling career.

There are 5 boats for hire on Lough Inagh and 4 river beats available
