We did the 3 day Connemara trip with Alex. The scenery, the fish, the accommodation and the whole experience was absolutely magical, fun and wonderfully memorable for us. Alex looked after every detail for us to the point where we could just relax and settle into the vacation vibe and enjoy the fishing. Don’t hesitate to book a trip with him.

I had a great time fly fishing small streams in the Burren for wild browns, my quest on a recent trip to Ireland. Alex put me over fish and provided the guidance to bring a number of gems to the net. More importantly, I enjoyed my time with Alex sharing our Trout Unlimited conservation work and life experience. A perfect fishing experience!”
