Salmon & sea trout fishing on the Erriff fishery. Mayo. Private guided. French/Eng.

Begin your fishing adventure near the stunning Aasleagh Falls, close to the River Erriff's estuary. Here, you will meet your experienced Ghillie, who is fluent in both French and English, at Aasleagh Lodge, which overlooks the breathtaking Killary Fjord. This picturesque setting provides the perfect start to an unforgettable day of fishing in the heart of Ireland’s wild landscape.

After being assigned a Beat, you will journey up the Erriff Valley to fish for wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout. Under the guidance of your Ghillie, you will receive expert advice on the best rods, reels, and flies to use. The preferred method of fly fishing on the Erriff is with a double handed Spey rod, allowing for long, graceful casts over the river’s flowing waters. Before heading out, flies can be conveniently purchased at the fishery office to ensure you are well equipped for the day ahead.

Renowned for its exceptional fishing conditions, the Erriff River is a classic spate river, characterized by its lively streams and deep, fish holding pools. Its dynamic waters provide an exciting and rewarding challenge for anglers of all levels. Whether you are an experienced fisherman or a beginner looking to hone your skills, the Erriff’s pristine environment and abundant fish stocks make for a truly memorable fishing experience.
