Most Irish fly anglers will be familiar with Keith McDonnell of Impact Fly Fishing, and his often innovative and always interesting take on fly fishing for trout. Keith has pioneered targeting large brown trout, often with streamers of his own design, which are things of beauty in their own right. In his latest blog, “The Dark Side of the Lough: Streamers for Connemara’s Ferox Trout”, Keith brings his experimental approach to the loughs of Connemara with some spectacular success. As always, reading one of Keith’s blogs leaves you full of excitement for the endless possibilities of fly fishing, and the photography is invariably first-class. So grab a cup of tea and a few dunkers, and give yourself 10 minutes to enjoy his tale of angling adventures in the west of Ireland…
