The mackerel are ‘in’ – last week, there were lines of fishermen along the prom in Salthill hauling in bucket loads of fish. Here is a video showing some of the more successful fishermen in front of the Waterfront Hotel (one of them hauled in about 10 on a single line) and here is a video of a few guys that didn’t catch anything but seaweed while I was watching them.
I just LOVE this photo, I am always interested in fishing photographs, stories, the culture of those involved in the industry etc. What a wonderful discovery to chance across your work and see this – your photographic work is very inspirational. Shona (Director of People and Songs of the Sea)
