Salmon angling on the River Moy has picked up further

Salmon angling on the River Moy picked up further during the last week of April 2017 with fish being caught throughout the system.

John Howley had a nice 13.5 lbs fish on fly on the Ridge Pool, while the first salmon of the season was reported on the Mount Falcon water. Nial Connolly was the lucky angler with a seven pounder caught on worm. Further fish were caught on Armstrong’s, Rinanney and the Foxford Salmon Anglers’ water, while Jeoff Wyles landed an 11.5 lbs. salmon on Gannon’s while spinning.
Nine salmon were reported from the East Mayo Anglers stretch, three of which were released. French lady angler, Sophie Berthommier, did particularly well catching a fine ten pounder on fly while guided by Paddy McDonnell.
