Footnotes

1

In the event that draft net fishing takes place in the Common Estuary Owenmore, the combined total allowable catch of the Owenmore (224) and 1SW Carrowmore (258) is reduced to reflect the higher risk associated with meeting the individual river conservation limits simultaneously. The combined Total Allowable Catch for the 3 fisheries, Owenmore, 1SW Carrowmore and Common Estuary Owenmore must not exceed 252 fish. This figure of 252 is to be divided between angling and commercial licence holders.

2

Brown tag to 11th May only (brown tag not required from 12th May)

3

Brown tag from 12th May (Closed to 11th May)
