River Moy
Water levels on the River Moy have been consistent and very suitable for angling throughout the week, despite this, angling effort is down considerably. A total of 494 salmon were reported for the week on the Moy, with the Moy Fishery accounting for 116 of these fish, with the Cathedral Beat producing 45 and the Ridge Pool yielding 44. Wexford pair James and Chris Ryan had one each on the Ridge to the fly, while Bill Campbell, Scotland had a total of three with the worm. Sean and Barry Price, England, also had success on the Ridge, with David Evans, England landing one salmon on the fly of 6.1lbs.

Gannon's Fishery also had its share, while at Armstrong's, Anthony Murphy, Dublin had three on the worm. The Foxford Fishery also fished well, where Trevor Bolton and Harry Cliffe, England, had 12 salmon for four days angling. Rinanney and the Foxford town waters continued to produce their share. However the catch at Cloongee was significantly down due to low numbers of anglers on the beat. East Mayo Anglers water continued its positive trend, with good numbers reported. Among those to have success at East Mayo were Shane, Paul and Joe McNamee, Dublin who had two salmon each, with Sean Quinn, Meath and John Little, N.Ireland also having success.

Lough Conn
Angling on Lough Conn has been notably quiet for the time of year. However, as always there are a few exceptions to the trend. Angling with the School of Fishing at Pontoon Bridge Hotel, Tom and Lola Jordan had three to wet flies, while Mark Walsh had one on the Green Peter. Regular visitors to Murphy's of Massbrook, Liam McHugh, Co.Offaly and Mick Sweeney, Loughrea had a total of four trout over two days to wets. In the northern end of the Lough, Padraig Traynor had two trout to wet flies, near Castle Island. Angling out of Cloghans, Sean Creane had one of 2lbs while Joe Quinn had good success, boating five trout for a day's fishing. The catch of the week on Lough Conn undoubtedly goes to young Ruadhán O'Gráda of Clonskee Co. Dublin, who, while angling under the guidance of Padraic Kelly, Cloghans, hooked and successfully boated a magnificent trout at the mouth of Cloghans Bay weighing 5lbs.

Ruadhán O'Gráda of Clonskee Co. Dublin and his fine 5lbs trout caught on Lough Conn.
