    You can get the permits in Tiernan brothers shop in foxford.
    I don't think there has been anything caught up that far yet, very few fishing I would say yet as it's still early.
    Spinning or worming, you never know.

    Still early in the season but you'd always have a chance although a slim one.
    Keep an eye on the sites below and have a look back through the old fisheries reports to judge when the best times are.
    Low water at the moment will keep the fish in the lower beats plus the cold winds don't help either.
    One thing for sure is that you will not catch anything on the internet, although it is much more comfortable at the moment.

    Water quite low for time of year.
    Keep an eye on the salmon fishing forum, and the tiernan bros website.

    Great wee stretch cloongee is but i think they need to drop the prices for the tickets. I think 35€ would be reasonable for a full days fishing seeinh as were in these bad times. Im near sure they charge 25-30€ for a half day :( in my opinion, thats crazy. I would say that theyre not going to get the numbers on the river like previous years with these prices
