Ireland salmon fishing Blackwater Lodge

Our previous Best Day was July 20 after the last small flood when 10 fish were caught.
Yesterday (September 7th.), fish were moving on both the lower & upper river and taking freely.
A total of 20 fish were caught by just 8 rods yesterday, of which 17 were released.
On the upper river, c
larity went down to about 2 feet but spinner proved very effective & 13 fish were caught above.
Two upper beats recorded 6 fish each, including a couple of 10 pounders. All but one were released.
One rod landed seven fish.
On the lower river where clarity was better at ~4 feet, seven fish to 8lb. were caught.
One rod had 3 on fly, and another one had one on spinner & landed another & lost 2 all on fly as well.
