‘It’s been the strangest of seasons,’ George McGrath tells us on this week’s Ireland on the Fly. 

George is a friend of the show and well-known fly angler based in Tipperary on the River Suir.  We’ve spoken to George previously about the nitrification of his stretch of the river that has seen it clogged with weeds during the summer making it all but unfishable.

But now, it’s so bad on the water, George has been forced to give up the trout rod during the summer months and go pike fishing elsewhere.

George joined us to highlight what he sees as the lack of care and lack of action against the pollution of our rivers and waters and asks where it will end and what is going to be done about it?
