fishing in Co.Mayo.


Recommended Posts

Here are some shots of our fishing attempts,take into consideration we dont fish a whole lot so not too bad really.1st picture is of my son who was 12 years old at the time,he caught this fish with Mary Gavin Hues out of Achill pier.It was the 2cd biggest fish of the day,The 2cd pic is my good self after fishing MOHER LOUGH on the Lisscarney rd,i had them for brekkie soon after.Last photo is after a mornings fishing with my son,we had 9 trout between us but we put back 5 as we didnt need that many,my son had 6 and I had 3.If ever you want great fishing with brilliant people,Mayo is the county to go to.Excuse the pics but they're photos of photos.

Well if you have any interest in fishing Frank make the most of it,there are some unreal areas for fishing,trout,salmon,sea fishing,pike,course fishing.Its all there just for the taking.Ferreter joe I think but I'm not sure the pollock was around the 10 lb weight but I could be wrong.You should have seen the poor kid trying to get it onto the boat,and he got absolutely no help from anyone.Made his year I have to say.

Agree. :yes: Boat fishing is unreal, great crack.

Some of the rivers my way are getting over fished by polish, ect, they dont put the fish back and kill them all :(

I went fishing down to my local river the other day with my son and cought nowt. Got talking to a local and he said that the polish, are catching them and killing them, aparently they eat them all. :icon_eek::no:
