A cool windy morning in Foxford, Its dry at the moment but the forecast is for heavy rain. The river is coming into reasonable order, it is now at 0.85m at Ballylahan bridge and has cleared a lot. The rain will most likely knock it out of action over the weekend. We are busy getting […]
A wild, wet and windy morning in Foxford. The river is at 1.2m at Ballylahan bridge and will rise more throughout the day. It is big and brown in Foxford . For anyone that is brave enough to face it, the best chance of a fish would either be above the traps in Ballina or […]
