Shannon RegionBrian McManus reports: [15/07/10] Longford and StrokestownDave, Alan, Neal and Ray from Blackpool have now been coming to Ireland for over twenty years now and know just how bad the weather can be, they were staying with Kevin and Jane of Melview Lodge for there 6th year so know the waters pretty well. Kevin said the lads prebaited and fished in weather conditions that only experienced anglers would, by this time there umbrellas were broken by the high winds but this did not put them off as they still managed some good catches of Bream, Hybrids and Roach fishing mainly the feeder. Fishing in and around Longford and Strokestown has been good despite some very bad weather conditions, feeder fishing seemed to produce the best fish with Bream to 4lb 10oz along with some good Hybrids and Roach. At the time of writing rain some heavy was still falling, I'm sure once the Loughs, Lakes and Rivers return to there normal levels we should see some good catches. Mohill and Carrick on ShannonLough RynnA Chernoble day took place on Lough Rynn last Sunday and it was a great days fun for them. With lots of diferent things to do the day went well. Hill Street LakesIan Coats from Nottingham fished Hill Street Lakes. Ian started early in the morning, fishing the wagler in 4 feet of water. Using maggot the bream came steadily all morning and he ended up with 80lb of mostly bream. Shemore match fishing clubWednesday match on Tully Lake

Brian Bohan PortumnaAfter much needed rain and cloud cover fishing now getting back to normal. Had good days on the Shebeen Stretch after cutting away vegetation on the unfished area (Maddens Field) Good nets of Bream, Roach, Hybrids, and Perch. I attach a photo of a typical example I caught yesterday weighing nearly 5lbs I had several more similar between 4lb- 5lbs also a fine Perch just under 3lbs. Lets hope this will now continue. No report for Rodgers Island which is still closed to vehicles so few venturing down.

Northern Ireland[15/07/10] Huge tench - potential recordFinbarr Quigley sent us the following news by email. The captor is Keith Berry from Northern Ireland, a member of the Tenchfishers who is also the current holder of the British Roach record and the fish was caught in the middle of the day at 2pm last weekend. Even though the fish is 6.5oz over the current record, Keith will not be claiming the record because his scales were not certified in advance of the capture. He has given me permission to provide you with the photograph, but details of the venue will have to remain a closely-guarded secret. Unfortunately for the rest of us!!
