Shane Gallagher reports from Drowes Fishery office: <\/strong>The 2021 salmon fishing season is due to commence in less than a month. At time of writing, intercounty travel will be permitted from before Christmas to Wednesday January 6th. Activities to mark the commencement of the new season on January 1st will necessarily be more muted next year.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There will be no increase in either fishing permit or state salmon licence prices for the 2021 season. As announced earlier in the year, 2020 season permits will remain valid for the 2021 season as a gesture to anglers whose opportunity to fish was impacted during times of lockdown and travel restrictions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2021 Licence<\/h3>\n

The 2021 state salmon licence is available for purchase at Store.fishinginireland.info<\/a>. Anglers are encouraged to purchase their licence online where possible and to allow at least 4 working days for salmon tags to be posted. Fishing permits will also be available online at www.drowessalmonfishery.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Permits and licences will also be available from the fishing tackle shop at Lareen, which will be open from 8am from Tuesday 29th December and from 6am on New Year\u2019s morning. Restrictions on entry to the shop will be in place. Face masks must be worn and social distancing observed.<\/p>\n

Silver prize<\/h3>\n

The fishery will once again be offering a prize of a one kilo \u201cbar of silver\u201d for the first fresh, wild salmon released from the fishery in 2021. Further details, terms and conditions will be announced before opening day.<\/p>\n

Everyone at the fishery is very much looking forward to getting back on the water, meeting up with old friends and facing the first dawn of the new year with an optimistic cast.<\/p>\n
