18 fish to 13lb. for 16 rod days in the last 4 days alone...

The heavy rain fell mainly in the middle to lower catchment & didn't hit the upper catchment much, though there has been some rain there this morning.
The upper river is up 5cm at Killavullen at 12.15.

We had 19mm rain at Ballyduff overnight. The gauge was down to 0.98m @ 09.00 but up again to 1.08m @ 11.00 & still rising. Clarity is still good however.
There is a flood on the river Funcheon this morning.

Fishing has been very good. We have had 18 fish to 13lb. for 16 rod days in the last 4 days.
Fish are being taken mainly with spinner at the moment but being caught even in very high (& sometimes pretty coloured) water which indicates that there must be a very good head of fish in the river. There have even been 2 fish on fly in the last 2 days up at Ballyhooly notwithstanding the high level.
