    Hello,
    After 10 years of not fishing Im getting back in to it.
    I would love if someone was willing to bring me along with them to any of the trout and salmon lakes.I used to do a lot of flyfishing on the Western lakes but haven't been out due to disc and shoulder problems.

    Im off to college to study environmental science in September so trying to get as much fishing in as I can.Im decent company,will split petrol/food and I have a car so will travel anywhere from Kerry to Donegal.

    Thanks for looking,
    Adrian

    I'll have a boat down on the corrib week of 8th May if you want to come out for a day or two. PM me closer the time if you want.

    Why don't you just hire a small boat or get a guide to bring you out? There reasonable enough

    Just a note, If your going on a big lough like Corrib, A Guide would be best not just for the fishing for safety, Them lakes are dangerous if you dont know where you're going!

    That goes for sheelin as well most of the markers are gone around church island some of the barrs are lying at a angle to the water and would rip trough a boat ,from bogbay to saliors garden 80% of the markers are gone 3 boats that i know of had their engines wrecked last year some of the anglers took it among themselvs to put 5 gallon drums on some of the rocks but most of them are not marked so mind yourself if going out alone and you dont know the lake.
