Adventurous anglers and families visited the Connemara region, County Galway, along the west coast of Ireland staying at the grand 16th Century Ballynahinch Castle, an old hunting and fishing lodge.

Surrounded by majestic mountains, forests, walking trails and rivers, we enjoyed much camaraderie, fishing, golfing, hiking, and visiting the remote Aran Islands- Inis Mor where Dun Aonghasa, the historic stone fort atop a cliff is located.

The freshest local produce meant every meal was memorable. Thanks to Gerry Padian for turning us on to Green Spot Irish Whiskey! Great craic!

Anglers caught the hard fighting sea trout but we were too early for the Atlantic salmon run. The wild brown trout also came to our nets and all fish caught were released. Offshore anglers caught many species including lots of pollock and mackerel.
