Its that time again, with the water over the weekend the dollaghen have made there way up the kells, no big numbers yet but a decent average size, (2lb) seen some bigger fish running tho. hopefully a few more will make there way up river on thursday as wednesday is to be pretty wet, tied a few killers this evening and im looking forward to interviewig a few dollies, Anyone looking to fish the kells can purchace a day ticket at Kilgad Fishery, should be worth a throw on thursday (i know i'll be out)

fished the kells tonite for trout, finished with about 40 trout up to about 12 inch's which is about average for the river, the trout arnt to hard caught on nymphs and wee spiders but there good sport on an 8ft 4# especially wen you get a double hook up and thats pretty common on the kells, didnt see any dollies but i know there's a few about, lets see what the water brings tomorrow

nice one Mick,,with this drop of rain we are having (and more on the way) it should freshen up the rivers..i wonder how the Sixmile will fair this year for Salmon and Dollaghan ? i`ve heard from a friend that there isn`t much happening on the Moy either but i suppose you can say that for most of the rivers due to the lack of rain....

Regards

the water was a nice hight this mornin but a bit on the dirty side, but plenty of fish about, i must have seen at least 50 dollies running the weir's up and down the river, i managed to land 4 and lose another 3 before the water level rose and the river became to dirty, roll on monday till i try and get at them again

Mick,
Sounds like great fishing. Is this day ticket water as well?
