My pal is an experienced fisherman and was in the Killarney region for
at least some of the time.

OK, about the least fishy area of Ireland though there are a couple of
lovely waters (but absolutely dependant on spates except on the beats below
the lough which are rather sewn up.) The loughs will have been dour in heat
too though they should have produced to sedges in late dusk. -IF- you are
up for a serious hike there are some interesting hill loughs nearby and a
few very short spate streams that will provide the occasional fish.

Having gone that far (and having crossed so many fine waters to get there) a
game angler should have carried on to Waterville*/Currane where they -have -
been catching.

I sounds as if you don't want to believe me :-)

Let's just say I'd hate for you to be right...

Cheerio,

sal****er flies from me then wasted them catching salmon...
