Aodhán McKinley

My name is Aodhan McKinley and my angling journey began at a very young age when I was first introduced into fly dressing and fishing by my late father. Since then I continued to fish for both Trout and Dollaghan, but my main passion is tying Salmon flies and chasing silver all over the North West of Ireland, mostly around the River Mourne and Foyle System, and the smaller rivers in Donegal.  
I created a fly called the Spectrum Shrimp during lockdown and it has proved a successful and popular pattern.  
Interested in all aspects of fly tying, I also dye some of my own materials.  
I am a member of the Blob & Buzzer signature team
