Showers have continued - especially in the upper catchment -
all day which is keeping th upper river topped up.
The air temperature was a balmy 8C @ 08.00 -
compared to just 1C yesterday morning, when there was a good frost!
Millstreet peaked at 08.30 this morning @ 1.06m
& was down to 0.85m by 22.15.
The river at killavullen rose 35cm & was just peaking @ 1.54m @ 21.00.
Clarity was about 2 feet in the morning but down to a foot by evening.
The Ballyduff gauge rose to 0.38 by 13.00, fell & is now rising again.
Clarity on the lower river was quite poor falling to about a foot.
Conor Arnold landed 3 fish to 7.5lb & Dave Walsh a 10 pounder - all on the upper river today before the clarity deteriorated in the late afternoon.
There were a good number of fish seen moving -
especially on the upper beats.
Best conditions tomorrow will probably be on the lower river
as the clearer water from upriver earlier today comes down.
With a comparatively dry forecast for the rest of the week,
the river should settle into good order for the last weekend.
There's no problem for availability of fishing & accommodation.
