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!
i have heard of people coming off a river and finding far worse things in their boats :-\

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.

I don't doubt it. I'd say you often find a Caz in your boat. Ewwww.
