River Erriff - National Salmonid Index Catchment
The River Erriff system has been designated as the National Salmonid Index Catchment. A dedicated research station with fish counting and trapping facilities is located at Aasleagh Falls by the mouth of this prestigious Atlantic salmon and sea trout fishery which flows into Killary Harbour fjord on the Atlantic coast in the west of Ireland. The research facility is managed by Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI) and supports a wide range of scientific research and monitoring activities on the resident salmonid populations and their migratory component as undertaken by the state agency and its national and international partners.

Delphi Record Salmon 20lbs11ozs - Delphi Lodge & Fishery Ireland Connemara
It’s been a great start to May here at Delphi Lodge & Fishery but all other fish pail into insignificance when compared to the magnificent specimen that Anthony Barrett Jolley (or just Tony to his friends) caught yesterday. The fish was sea liced and weighed in at a staggering 20lbs11ozs. The fish was hooked in the Rock Pool at 5pm and landed at 5.30pm. The pool had already been well fished by a number of experienced anglers who shall remain nameless!
Tony was the fourth person to fish the pool in the afternoon. He was using one of our small double handed 12’9” house rods with a sinking tip line. The fly was very traditional, a size 6 Gary Dog double. Tony hooked the fish fairly high up in the pool just at the tail end of the white water, even though the gauge was at 50. The fish was netted by Christopher Jarman and Tony was completely shattered afterwards but he soon overcame this to have the look of a man that had just achieved something great.
