Spring Salmon have now arrived at Finavon. In the first days of April we landed three silver fish of 7lbs, 12lbs and 15lbs.
There are also a good number of fresh salmon showing in the main pools.
Pools that have scored to date are Melgund – Indies Beat (12lbs), Tyndals – Milton Beat (7lbs), and Haughs – Bogardo Beat (15lbs).
It is especially encouraging that we are seeing some good sized two sea-winter fish, including one very big fish in Indies Pool – Indies Beat.
As I write this on the 8th of April there is a good spate running off after two nights of heavy rain, which should bring in more salmon.
Prospects for the rest of April look very exciting!
