June 14 2010 Salmon Fishing Report from Ireland’s Cork Blackwater river
Flood moves fish from tidal water!
The small flood on Tuesday put the river out of order for a couple of days as it became very coloured. By Friday it was improving and 3 fish were lost on the Lodge beats.
Yesterday (Saturday), four fish were caught – 3 on spinner & one on fly. The best (~12lb) was caught & released by Ray Burns on Upper Kilmurry on spinner.
Today, there were 3 grilse taken on the fly.
Clarity is now a good 3 feet. Seven fish in total for 14 rod days in the last two days. There has been a significant increase in the number of fish moving through the lower beats since the flood. I’m also hearing about some grilse & salmon being caught up in the Mallow area.

April 11, 2010 Salmon Fishing Report from Ireland’s Cork Blackwater river
Here’s the current water level on the Cork Blackwater at Ballyduff.

The river is falling slowly but steadily. The clarity has improved dramatically & is now about 5 feet on the lower river. It’s still a bit too high to fish the fly comfortably.
The 5th. springer of the season on the Lodge beats was caught on spinner on Beat 5 – Inchinleama last Sunday (April 4th.) before the last flood hit the river. One kelt was caught today – surprising that there are still some present in the river this late in the season.

Atlantic Salmon Catch Reports from Ireland’s Cork Blackwater River
The First Springer is Caught on the Blackwater Lodge beats.
Lodge regular Gavin Wishart from Newcastle, Co. Down came down to celebrate his 40th. birthday this weekend & scooped the First Salmon of the 2010 season to be caught on the Lodge Fishery.
He was fishing yesterday (March 6th) with Connie Corcoran on Ballinlovane and took the fish on Flying C at Cloonbeg. The fish would have been released, but was bleeding from the gills so had to be kept. The cast before he lost what they both believe was another springer, so there were definitely a few about. It was hardly surprising that it took us until now to catch a fish as there were only 64 rod days for the whole month of February. There would certainly be more springers caught if there were more rods out on the river each day.
