Summary of 2011 Season

Season Total:    529
Season Best:    16.5lb. taken by Terry O'Keeffe on Beat 1 - Ballygally on September 24.
Best Day:           September 20.  Twenty-two fish including six to 16.3lb. for one rod.
Best Party:         Terry McDermott's 3 rod party caught (& released all) 22 fish to 14lb. for their week in September.

And then ...............................................
One can only surmise what might have been the biggest fish of the season with one fish lost on June 20 on the upper river
& another lost on the lower river on September 28th.  Both fish were reckoned to be around the 30lb. mark!
