    caught these 2 river trouts few weeks ago after a flood.

    What river are these from? Most (if not all) rivers close to trout angling on the 30th Sepember...did you kill 2 trout out of season?

    What weight would you think it is. i got one early this year, on a pattern you recommended :-) that looked about the same. I put her back without weighing or measuring. I guessed about 5lb.

    Went over to the Curragh Springs today for the first time. Had a cracker of a day. Got 8 including these 2 on successive casts just as Sean the owner came down to see how I was doing. All I can say about the place is Wow!

    I know everyone who fishes there gives it a good report but i just feel I have to chip in with my tuppence worth. The fish are just so hard fighting its unbelievable. Great great day out :D:D:D

    Nice looking bows there daroxtar.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,157 ✭✭✭Compton


    Nice bows indeed, pity the ground there is so rough... Id say a lot of the fish get damaged when caught


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 497 ✭✭experimenter


    Curragh Springs is one of the cleanest fisheries...

    There's only one small section where there's gravel and the rest if all grass...

    Fish can be taken out of the net, without been landed on the gravel..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,428 ✭✭✭Daroxtar


    They were the only 2 I had out of the water at all. Shaun arrived and banked them both. I left the rest in the net in the water to unhook them. Agree about the place being grassy, that spot where the slipway is is pretty much the only spot with gravel.

    I'll definitly be spending more time over there.

    I'm not an angler at all and was looking at this thread randomly. Just have to say I think it's a great thing the consideration a lot of ye have for the welfare of the fish yis hunt. Fair play
