For this week's podcast episode, I talk about the sedge hatches, which have been very poor and sparse this past month. Hopefully it is down to the high water temperatures holding the hatches back. It's not only us anglers keen to get the cooler water to bring on the sport; both the fly life and trout are also waiting. I tell the story of past experiences when rain and cooler water followed the hot…

This week's episode, I talk about the attraction of the Mayfly that brings anglers together. The experiences and the feelings the hatch gives us. A magical time of year that stirs so much anticipation and excitement, at this spiritual time for us, fly fishermen.

Hi guys, this week's episode, I chat once more about Corrib ferox. I'm so looking forward to getting out this season to troll for the big girls. Lots of things have changed since I started targeting them back over 25 years ago. I tell of how areas which once consistently produced ferox, now you'd be lucky to get a pull, while new areas are starting to produce good fish. I talk of the time I had 11…
