Nice to get these reports !

As evidenced by the huge drop off in the number of anglers on Corrib over the last fortnight fishing on the lake has slowed considerably. Small trickles of Mayfly around Inchagoill and a few other places continue but the fish appear to be more interested in sedges. Of course, that other species of Mayfly, Caenis, which is commonly referred to as "the curse" has been attracting the more determined anglers. The more prolific hatches tend to occur in the early hours of the morning and late in the evening. Even though trout can be gorging on these tiny white flies your fly can be totally ignored even if your cast has landed your fly right in the middle of the hatch. Perseverance is the word when it comes to caenis fishing. But back to the Mayfly. From conversations with many anglers over the last month the artificial fly which worked best during the Mayfly was a Mayfly b***y similar to the one pictured here. Placed on the top dropper it caught a lot of fish for me and certainly worked as a great attractor on many occasions. When the second Mayfly hatch hopefully appears in July it will be interesting to see if it works as good.
For those anglers, like myself, who enjoy seatrout fishing I have attached a link to a clip which appeared in my feed this morning. How many times will the government have to be told about the detrimental affect of open cage salmon farming on our native seatrout and wild salmon before any action is taken?
