Trap and Barrier Numbers

Well on this last day of the season I do not have good news on the numbers that went through the trap on the weekend. The Millerton and Cassilis traps both had only 2-3 salmon and 1 grilse each day. Today Millerton had no salmon or grilse and about 20 bass. The Cassilis trap had 3 salmon and no grilse.  I believe the trap will be taken out the first of next week and I will send out the final week’s numbers as I receive them.

The barrier numbers  confirm what the trap numbers have shown us. As of October 7th the Northwest Barrier held 330 salmon and grilse compared to 1007 the same time last year. The Dungarvon Barrier contained 276 compared to 867 the same time last year.
