Difficult angling conditions during the week with North and North Easterly winds prevailing. However, surprisingly good returns this week from anglers fishing from Dringeen Bay.

Jean Yves from Corsica and Christian Desgrippes from France had a great day during the week and caught 5 trout with their best fish weighing 4lbs. Isham guests, Des McDonough and friends from Carlow had another good day with 6 trout – all good sizes. All of these anglers were fishing Wet Fly and most fish were returned to the water alive.
Dr. Ian & Rosie Gordon, Northern Ireland had a very enjoyable day’s fishing with Dry Flies on Saturday, 12th May and had 3 trout and a lot of small fish. Their best fish was 3lbs and again, most of their trout were returned to the water.
Despite Sunday, being a difficult day to fish with almost gale force South Westerly winds, Adrian Gorman and a friend retreated from Lough Mask to the shelter of Dringeen Bay to be rewarded with a fine catch of 4 trout for 9½lbs and numerous small fish, most of which were returned. Adrian and his friend were fishing Wet Flies and all of their fish were caught on Mayfly patterns.
Other anglers fishing from Isham during the week all reported good activity with lots of small fish showing.
