Fly fishermen have been catching trout and salmon from Ireland's abundant rivers and loughs for centuries. This practical fishing book, written by Ireland's top fly-fishing instructor, Peter O'Reilly, looks at the rich tradition of game angling in the Emerald Isle. O'Reilly shares tips on such specialist skills as fishing the duckfly, mayfly, and murrough on the loughs; the merits of fishing the Irish shrimp fly for salmon; and the arts of dapping, Erriff-style slack-water fishing, and imitating the Sheelin bloodworm. Brimming with clear advice on tackle, flies, techniques, and river craft, this is your perfect companion guide to fishing Ireland's loughs and rivers.
