Fly Fishing the Emerald Isle
Fishing in Ireland delivers one of the most unique angling experiences in the world: a combination of amazing history, wonderful hospitality, engaging cultural immersion, and – of course – plenty of ideal fishing opportunities. Affectionately known as the Emerald Isle, Ireland is a country famous for breathtaking seascapes, rolling green hills, salmon-filled rivers, and tranquil “loughs” (lakes). Dramatic cliffs tower over rugged and wind-swept coastlines, while ancient ruins scattered throughout the country stand as relics of past grandeur. And, of course, there is no better way to end a day of fishing than a visit to a local pub for the best-tasting Guinness on the planet.

Most trips to Ireland begin and end in Dublin, a city as intimate as a village and as friendly as any worldly destination.
