What They Say

We did the 3 day Connemara trip with Alex this May 2025. The scenery, the fish, the accommodation and the whole experience was absolutely magical, fun and wonderfully memorable for us. Alex looked after every detail for us to the point where we could just relax and settle into the vacation vibe and enjoy the fishing. Don’t hesitate to book a trip with him.

I was lucky enough to travel to Ireland last August. I found Ireland to be an amazing place and I can’t wait to return. I had an unforgettable expereince flyfishing with guide extraordinare and proprietor Alex Joyce of Flyfishing in the Burren.

I had a great time fly fishing small streams in the Burren for wild browns, my quest on a recent trip to Ireland. Alex put me over fish and provided the guidance to bring a number of gems to the net. More importantly, I enjoyed my time with Alex sharing our Trout Unlimited conservation work and life experience. A perfect fishing experience!”

Alex was really knowledgeable about fishing and great to chat with. I would definitely recommend and come back for a much larger block of time!

Alex was knowledgable and skillful and did everything possible to make my flyfishing experience as great as possible

We can't say enough about our awesome experience flyfishing with Alex - 11/10!!!
