Dillon's Challenges DILLON’S CHALLENGES Challenge No 5: GO FISHING HINTS & TIPS: • Make sure that you stay well back from the water, no matter where you are! • It would be a good idea to wear a life vest to be extra safe! • Dress appropriately for the weather – it is Ireland after all! Bring a water proof jacket and shoes. • Bring lots of snacks to nibble on while you’re waiting to those fish to bite! • And don’t forget to bring an adult along on your fishing adventure! *All Dillon’s challenges should take place within current Covid 19 Government guidelines.

The upward trend in the quantity and value of the sea-fish landings evident since 1939 was resumed in 1948 after the set-back experienced in 1946 and 1947. Landings in 1948 of all sea fish with the exception of shell fish exceeded those of 1947 by 68,805 cwt. This overall increase was due to an increase in the weight of demersal fish landed amounting to 8,890 cwt. and, in the case of pelagic fish, an increase of 59,915 cwt. The quantity and value of the landings of all kinds of sea-fish (excluding shellfish) in each year since 1939 are as follows:— Year Cwt. £ 1948 385,243 595,647 1947 316,438 547,185 1946 326,039 562,769 1945 371,937 551,820 1944 306,869 513,063 1943 277,911 510,970 1942 252,703 433,650 • IW 275,793 499,904 1940 224,755 267,482 1939 187,949 196,199 The diagram opposite gives a graphic illustration of the fluciua lions in weights and values of landings year by year since 1930.

This annual report maps trends in the stocks of salmon and sea trout since 2001 from both the commercial and recreational fisheries sectors. This report provides valuable information to fisheries’ managers, scientists, policy makers and legislators and assists in the design and implementation of policies and strategies for the conservation of salmon and sea trout stocks in Ireland. The 2009 statistics show that the total number of salmon harvested by all methods was 24,278 – which represent a decrease of 22% on the total harvest recorded in 2008 . 2009 proved a difficult year for both anglers and commercial fishermen with the deterioration in catches due to unfavourable fishing conditions, high water levels, marine survival rates and some late fish runs at key fishing periods. The 2009 commercial catch was 6,757 salmon and 45 sea trout (over 40 cm) which was only 37% of the Total Allowable Catch (TAC) allocated to the sector.
