May be rest in peace

Sadly fush of that size and numbers are long gone. And partly to blame were anglers of those times and beyond. 100 or so years ago. Education or knowledge of how sustainable those fish stocks were. Probably didnt come into question. Now with industrialised fishing trawlers out at sea. Over delopements of towns on the rivers. Man made dams weirs etc on big rivers. And malpractice of a small minority of so called anglers both from here and abroad. The once great fish of size and abundance in our rivers and lakes are far from its best. But with good management of our waterways. And a properly staffed and active fisheries board with full backing of garda and government. Those days of old could be in our future. Heres to hoping fellow fishermen

No net s now we ve killed our salmon ,farmers and nets men

Did they get 1??

hey can you please tell me the exact location

rip

122 salmon on one rod ! Did they really think or care that this amazing fish could maintain its numbers with such kill rates.

The largest rod caught salmon was by mr moore in 1874 57lbs river suir, any pic of that?

Opw.ifi irish state destroyed our irish rivers look at some of our rives a few have no salmon the mulcair my river they are doing their best to destroy it salmon can be saved fuk green house gas save our irish heritage stop building near rivers prioritise nature put salmon first restore our rivers to their glorious past it can be done if we want too !

Down through the wood I go along a well trodden path I know the singing of the river greets my ears the dawning of the day my eye's togeather daw and woodcock break in that grand and noble place the Oakland's of glencar

Fair Play a man ahead of his time practising c&r.

Lovely film .but so so sad .never again will fish in Ireland attain such weights .Our salmon pike .bass. have been descitmated .never to return to our islands by gone days

whos the idiot littering with orange hat at 0:30?

Great video

Great old photos. Is there a Part 2 to this? The photo with the ruin on the far bank - is that Moreek on the Shannon at Castle Connell?

What is the poem at 2.40? Where can I find the full verse?

Hi, Moycullen man here.. just wondering who wrote/sang the song!? Been wondering for a while now. Thanks

That's a Eurofighter Typhoon Displaying in sathill.

'2.19' Now that is an epic days fishing

Culling of seals, and a better control of farm runoff, also a total ban on fishing ,that includes the landlords that still own the Irish rivers this is what is needed help the Atlantic salmon return to the Irish rivers.

That's the US Thunderbirds only 4 of them fly by.

The fact that there were we live is bad and also the box jelly is comin

The fish @0.45 is not a salmon, its a huge trout, look at the tail. Nice video!

I hate that dam

*I wouldn't go that close if I were you*

Lovely video with mesmerising music...made me sad to see these majestic creatures slain but we salmon anglers were mostly all guilty of it in our early trophy fish days,never in our wildest dreams thinking how the halcyon days would come to an end

You are so lucky to be so close to the Cyanea Capillata (Lions Mane Jellyfish)! I also saw the Aurelia Aurita (Moon Jellyfish) in the background. What an experience!

I held a dead one

Oh Rod. Rod. Wherefore art thou Rod?

Wow I love this country..

The problem is they are just migrating fish. That isn't their home. Without our river habitats where they spawn they would have no salmon to over harvest.

Thank you for share.

I live beside him

Hon Galway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sounds just like a red fox

Awesome!

Life in Greenland looks very pure and natural. I would love to go there. Not Aruba, but very beautiful. I think those salmon were the best to eat. Long live the good Earth.

Was this in December ?

Salmo - what lough in Ireland was this please? I am doing some research on piking in Ireland, I recall last Feb 1986 on Lough Carra, Mayo - many thanks for your Help, Edward Graham

this is beautiful

these lads looks WAY bigger then U16. They look like minors!!

magnificent fish.....

water was very low them fish must have been red!!

That's not Clew bay at the beginning. The bay is further north.

At first I thought it was a buzzard. Not an eagle for sure. I think Harry is right. A black kite perhaps. Either way, great to see here in Connemara, hope they stick around.

Yes, I see the forked tail now looking closely. But couldn't a Buzzard fan his tail out and move it for lift when taking off quickly in that wind? Not convinced its a Kite.
