Mick O’Farrell is an Irish fly angler and is that rare breed who moved to the UK and subsequently established a high reputation for himself on the stillwaters in England, in addition to his prowess in Ireland.
He became well known for his book, ‘A Passion for Trout’ and could often be read in UK fly fishing publications discussing stillwater tactics and flies.
With best intentions to retire to Ireland, he has a new book out called, ‘Trout and Grayling Flies: An International Masterclass' and he joins us on this week’s Ireland on the Fly to discuss his fly fishing life in Ireland and England and how anglers from both countries have helped to develop and improve fly fishing techniques on the two sides of the Irish Sea.
