Dear all,

does anyone know of any decent river fishing in Co Galway ? I am also prepeared to travel 2 hours to Mayo etc if anyone can suggest anywhere decent. I'm not after specimen trout, just pleasant scenery and the odd fish would be nice. I am used to fishing the Derbyshire Wye and a river similar to that would be ideal.

Please help !!! I've been here for 2 weeks and I am yet to fish.......I'm going cold-turkey !!!

Regards,
Drfrank
