This week I chat with Dan O'Neill, ghillie at the Mount Juliet Estate, Kilkenny. He talks about the River Nore and the story behind getting the job at only the age of 14. He is also a qualified APGAI single handed casting instructor and gives demonstrations around the country at various shows. An interesting guy to chat with a few stories to tell including, James Bond and Denim Blue.
Ceri Jones is a passionate fly-fisherman, professional photographer and holder of the Lough Corrib Ferox Trout Record [23lb 12oz].
The Casting with Ceri Jones podcast is the story of Ceri’s career, the days, weeks and years spent casting from boats and riverbanks. Tales of the catches, the tackle, the lakes, the rivers, the ones that were landed and the ones that got away.
Interviews on location and in the studio, with fellow fishermen, gillies, boatmen, friends, champions and fisheries managers. There will be tackle reviews, venue guides and even the winding yarn of the Big Corrib Catch.
So pull up a chair, settle back, relax and enjoy an uninterrupted hour of fishing talk. Because as Ceri always says “The next best thing to being out fishing … is talking about it”
