Fishing

First Springer Salmon.         Success on my first day salmon fishing of the season. I fished the river Mourne running through the town of Sion Mills near Strabane. Having fished all morning with my 13ft fly rod with no success i decided that after lunch i would try spinning. On my second pass down through the 'Gravenue pool' i hooked up with a good strong fish. Three times i got the fish close and three times it went on a run. Once straight across the river and another way downstream. Great fight and certainly leaves you wanting to go back for more. It was caught on a black flying 'c'. Info on the river Mourne can be found at mournereports.com
