Ok guys and gals. This may or may not be news to you but I sure wasn't aware of this. If you don't like slimey things/creatures and like paddling don't look any further..

I was on one of my usual photography forums and just saw a shot taken on the boyne today. I didn't know their were eels on the boyne

Ha!

The boyne is simply the best river ever- is there anything it doesn't have!

Kyle, you free next week for some photography. I need a some good shots of me in the field, using a shovel, playing in the mud and some action shots of me taking samples. I'll throw in some dinner and a movie.

I going down Aghade rapid once (on the Slaney) when I felt a pain on my knee. I popped my deck and had to pull a leech off and throw it in the water.
