Waterford Lakes fishing well

The Waterford lakes are fishing super of late.  Carrigavantry is fishing well to all methods with the unusually mild weather.  If you are fishing on the surface a dry daddy is still taking a few fish.

Wets fished really well for Dave Burke from Cork last weekend.  Dave had a great day on the lake and says he will be back!

Although the day permit bag limit is 4 trout all anglers are asked to keep two trout and return the rest.

Knockaderry has not cleared out as well as Carrigavantry so far but in spite of the water still showing the effects of algal bloom the lake is fishing well.  Fish are rising early morning and late evening when the lake is calm.  Fish can caught at various depths so it is worth trying an intermediate line and a few dabblers as well as nymphs and Diawl Bachs.
