I'm traveling to Lough Corrib for 4 days fishing this Thursday so what flies can I not do without ??

Your opinions will be most helpful.

Thanks in advance.

wulff dry grey, green, yellow and your usual wets for the may fly. fishing slow at the moment pleanty of may fly coming off from top of lake down to Kilbeg.

Jasus i nearly offed these for some hooks!



Corrib sounds like a nice place to test them so i may keep them for a rainy day now.

whack em out there

Whack em out lol.....find it strange when chasing salmon down there my old pops never fancied a go at one of the lakes....maybe something for me and the son to do in the future.

Ray, from the way this season has been going I think you are coming at a perfect time. The weather is promised good so if you like dry fly and buzzer fishing you should be in business, was out on Sunday but we still had the north winds, I did manage 3 nice fish on nymphs. This weekend sees a rise in temps and a return to south west winds, there are still plenty of buzzers and olives hatching as well are the mayfly bounty. Where are you basing yourself, this will have a big bearing on how and what you fish.

I'm staying with a friend out the Glam Road in Oughterard.

By the way there are three of us fishing out of two boats so room for one more if anybody is interested. Fishing Thursday, Friday and Saturday. PM me your contact details if you are interested.

Mayflies in green and yellow
dabblers green, golden olive and silver and Tucks variant
green peter,golden olive bumble all in size 10.

That should give you plenty of action.

Oh I forgot to include Stan Headley's Octopus.......!
