River Moy

The River Moy as she flows calmly through the town of Ballina, Co Mayo.

There is nothing better than sitting by the side of this river on a sunny day watching as the Salmon take to the fly. This picture is taken just after the world renowned Ridge Pool and Cathedral beats which flow through the town. 

The Salmon Festival takes places on a yearly basis and brings heritage day to town. Heaven with the smell of burning sods of turf on the street and the sweet smell of Poteen in the air as the old school take to making it for the passers by to see.

Live music on each street corner is also a sight to see. Well worth a visit if you are ever in that fine part of the world.

Great firework display ends the festival which is also set on the banks of the Cathedral beat.
