A few fresh fish have been seen on our beats over the
last couple of weeks but so far the fishing effort has been very light – even though
our first fish of the season usually comes about this time in the month. Steve Watt ventured out today, though, and was
rewarded with the first fish of the season - a very nice fish of 13lbs on the
fly – and followed up with a fish of 16lbs on the devon – both from Port-na-Craig
bank this afternoon. Steve wins the Mitchell trophy for the first fly caught
salmon of the season by a member on club waters – well done! The river remains
at an excellent height – surely not too long before another comes to the net.
