Whether you call dangling a worm into river fishing nowadays I dunno, but I liked it anyway, and the buzz that catching even a sprat (that got threw back) is something else.....and it's time to take it up again, especially just after leaving Dublin. I live in Mayo, not far from the river Moy, so Trout and Salmon I guess. Any advice on bait (worms?) ... licences ? .... how to go about learning how to fish properly? Would like to learn how to fly fish as well. Sorry for the 'Newb' style question.

I was on the Moy at the weekend, fishing conditions were difficult as the water is so low but got a 6 1/2 and a 4 pounder on the fly. Call into Tiernan Bros. Tackle shop in Foxford. They are good fellas and will advise you on where, when and how to fish the Moy. P.S. Lidl gear can vary greatly in quality & suitability, their fly rods are totally unsuited for a river the size of the Moy. ( In my opinion they arent actually suitable for much at all!) Good Luck !
