Savage Fishing: Good Fun With Grilse
http://savagefishing.blogspot.com/2015/07/good-fun-with-grilse.html
Thursday, 23 July 2015. Good Fun With Grilse. All is not lost though and the grilse fishing is beginning to make up for the lack of sport earlier on. Since the beginning of this persistent, unsettled weather regime, grilse have been running in very good numbers. Since the 6th of July, the Bandon has been in absolutely beautiful order for fishing. Regular freshets have kept the river at an excellent height, with all methods fishable. Prior to the recent good sport with salmon, sea trout fly fishing at nig...

Savage Fishing: November 2014
http://savagefishing.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, 6 November 2014. Narrow Windows of Opportunity. Again, fish were focusing in on hard plastic lures. Interestingly, a couple of the bass had been gorging on a jellyfish- like organism called Velella. These are surface dwelling cnidarians whose travels around the ocean are dictated by the wind. They are also known as "blue by-the-wind sailors" due to their colour and the fact they possess a sail. Opportunistic these fish certainly are! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). River Bandon Live Webcam.

Savage Fishing: September 2014
http://savagefishing.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 17 September 2014. Indian Summer Sea Trout. Finally, last week I saw a photo of what must be one of the largest salmon ever to come off the river Bandon. This photo comes from Fred Buller's "The Domesday Book of Giant Salmon" Volume 1. It is thought that the salmon was captured some time between the 1920's to 1950's via a draft net in the estuary. At 51/52lbs, will we ever see the likes of it in Ireland again? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Bandon Angling Association Fishing Guides.

Savage Fishing: March 2015
http://savagefishing.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, 1 March 2015. First Springer of the year on the Bandon River. Following on from my success last week on the Drowes, I thought I would be writing this weeks post with a few landscape photos of the Bandon. However, I have a little bit more to write about then that as the Bandon has offered up its first spring salmon of the year. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Bandon Angling Association Fishing Guides.

Savage Fishing: Specimen Bandon Sea Trout

Wednesday, 6 May 2015. Specimen Bandon Sea Trout. We said no more until minutes later Ian had his prize on the bank. Our jaws collectively dropped as we realised the fish was indeed a sea trout and what a sea trout at that! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Bandon Angling Association Fishing Guides.

Savage Fishing: June 2014
http://savagefishing.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 17 June 2014. Light Line Worm Does the Trick. Summer time is well and truly here! We're enjoying some spectacular weather at the moment and the river as a consequence is dropping quickly. At least if the fishing isn't too great we can gorge ourselves on the 64 matches the World Cup has to offer or simply admire the beautiful scenery down at the river. Tuesday, 10 June 2014.

Savage Fishing: August 2014
http://savagefishing.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Monday, 25 August 2014. Is There A Flood Around The Corner? The fish was just off the tide and covered in long tailed sea lice. With September 30th fast approaching its going to be hard for us to better this poundage! Try as I might, I've landed 2 more fish on the worm also, which both went back to continue their trek to the headwaters. Both fish were in the 4-5lb bracket and swam off strongly. Wednesday, 6 August 2014. Irish Bass Festival 2014. Another year, another hugely successful bass festival. ...

Savage Fishing: August 2015
http://savagefishing.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Monday, 10 August 2015. Grilse have continued to make up the bulk of the catch. All methods have worked very well, but the fly has been particularly effective. The average size of these one sea winter salmon has been around 3lbs with nearly all fish caught lately being fresh. As the season progresses, size is increasing with more in the 4-6lb bracket being intercepted. At least prospects for the future are looking very promising. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Savage Fishing: October 2014
http://savagefishing.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, 26 October 2014. The shear power of this fish was breath taking. Every time I thought she was tiring she sprinted off on another surging run. In prime condition, we admired her before slipping her back into the water. Such a good start to the evening, was this to be it or were there more Dicentrarchus labrax. Rob hasn't been fishing for long but has really taken to the sport this year. He caught some great trout in Ballinlough. Wednesday, 8 October 2014. Salmon Leap for Joy. By night I fished the...
