Who is Brian?

Brian Russell, a qualified Northern Ireland Fly Fishing Guide and 4 Times All Ireland  Rivers Champion  is  situated in the middle of the province of Ulster in Northern Ireland, surrounded by countless streams and waterways with some of the best wild  brown trout and Atlantic salmon fishing in Ireland. Let the 4 times All Ireland  Rivers Fly Fishing Champion host you on your Guided Fly Fishing trip in Northern Ireland.  If you want to know how do you flyfish in Ireland get in touch.

If you wish to sample the delights of top quality guided fly fishing throughout Ireland contact Brian and let him  arrange all you need from transport to accomodation to make your holiday or guided fly fishing tour in Ireland an enjoyable one that exceeds your expectations.

Even if you are only on a business trip in Ireland  an evenings guided fly fishing can be arranged for you with all necessary tackle supplied.

II can offer top quality guided fly fishing on all my local Rivers Bann, Cusher, Callan and Lagan, all within twenty minutes of my home in counties Armagh, Antrim and Down.  Guided bespoke salmon flyfishing is available on the Rivers Finn and Owenea in county Donegal. Or alternatively I can offer top of the range guided fly fishing days on the River Mourne and its tributaries Strule, Camowen and Drumragh(County Tyrone).  Lough Erne(CountyFermanagh) and the Colebrooke River  are within easy reach as is the  Lough Neagh System  where I have  fished for over 45 years for trout, seatrout, dollaghan and salmon. If you are wanting to couple your guided fly fishing in Ireland with sightseeing and golfing why not let me guide you on the rivers of the  County Antrim Coast where you can also visit the Giants Causeway, Bushmills Distillery or the Royal golf Course in Portrush.   Also have a good knowledge of  the rivers of the East coast fom the Fane River ( County Louth)to the Slaney, knowing the Liffey (County Kildare)and Kells Blackwater (County Meath)particularly well.  Moving inland let this Irish Fly Fishing Guide   show you the delights of the fabulous Annalee system in County Cavan and its tributaries with their profuse fly hatches including mayfly.

Any of you who want to couple your sightseeing in the Mourne Mountains or golfing at Royal County Down with guided fly fishing, the Rivers Whitewater, Moneycarragh and Shimna are all within casting distance with good runs of seatrout, that make for exciting night fishing.  The mountains themselves are not devoid of fish either and the mountain dams and loughs are home to copious quantities of free rising brownies.

For those that prefer the lure of the shore guided Saltwater Fly fishing is also available for seatrout in both Carlingford and Dundrum bays from shore or boat.

'My three days spent on Bann and Cusher where fantastic, my first Atlantic Salmon, lots off wild browns and their lough Neagh cousins the Dollaghan where inspirational' 

Stan Seiffert ( Canada). 

'When only used with small pond rainbows, to catch so many truly wild and feisty browns to such varying techniques is an experience I shall never forget.' 

Martin Whitehouse ( England)

"We really had a blast and its a memory we'll always enjoy!  You made it incredibly convenient and we couldn't have fit it into our short trip without you.  Let us know if you are ever in New York, would love to buy you a pint."

Paul and Courtney Psak USA 

" I just wanted to thank you for the professional guiding and instruction you gave me and Alan on the Strule River.  It was a very pleasant day and we both felt the challenge of techniques that we can't wait to give a try on our next fishing trip.  Your attention to detail and patience were exemplar."
