I was chatting to a mate only yesterday who had recently returned from a
disastrous trip to Ireland . He was unable to find any salmon or sea
trout fishing anywhere.

That's hard to believe, though the weather dictates at this time of year.
The Irish are so used to first class fishing that they tend to give up long
before most of us would ...but then they also have those first class pubs...

I didn't make it up Derek.

No problem with trout fishing though AFAIK

Phil Jones posted a link the other day which I think said there are no
salmon in Ireland. Check the postings for this.
