This week Ceri catches up with Mark Roberts. He shares with us his journey as a fly-fisherman from fishing the rivers in Northern Ireland, while in the army, lough style competition fishing, to being a qualified casting instructor, and onto his love for the River Usk. He talks of Dry fly fishing and interpreting a trout’s rise and some fascinating fly-tying stories.
Ceri Jones is a passionate fly-fisherman, professional photographer and holder of the Lough Corrib Ferox Trout Record [23lb 12oz].
The Casting with Ceri Jones podcast is the story of Ceri’s career, the days, weeks and years spent casting from boats and riverbanks. Tales of the catches, the tackle, the lakes, the rivers, the ones that were landed and the ones that got away.
Interviews on location and in the studio, with fellow fishermen, gillies, boatmen, friends, champions and fisheries managers. There will be tackle reviews, venue guides and even the winding yarn of the Big Corrib Catch.
So pull up a chair, settle back, relax and enjoy an uninterrupted hour of fishing talk. Because as Ceri always says “The next best thing to being out fishing … is talking about it”
