Title: Lough Corrib mayfly film
Post by: Iain Cameron on 07/01/2019 at 17:23

folks


lovely wee film about Lough Corrib on the west of Ireland, and the mayfly. I fished there this spring (in ridiculously atypical hot hot hot weather) and it is indeed trout heaven.

Thank you for that Iain. Enjoyed watching it. I'll be on Mask in May, hoping that the Mayfly are up. I didn't realise that Mask holds more water than Corrib although it is much smaller.

aye, it is a special place.
I was lucky enough to fish with Tom Doc Sullivan - one of the anglers featured in the film - and he was a great fella to share a day with. He is one of the many guides there, and can spot a rise a mile off.


His boats were superb too; great craftmanship. Even just being in the boat was a pleasure.
