A slightly duller morning in Foxford, the cloud is a welcome bonus to angling. If it stays like this it will not be a bad day on the river. Reasonable reports from fisheries downstream of Foxford yesterday and the prawn certainly seemed to be working. Further up stream its time to scale things down and smaller flies are now necessary, size 14 and lightly dressed. For anyone that wants to spin a Swinford spoon or a Rolla 8G are worth trying. The shop will be open from 8am to Noon today and will reopen at 8am on Tuesday morning.

Overcast in Foxford this morning, a few showers but nothing major. The river is now at 1.19m at Ballylahan bridge, still a big flow through
