Captain
Niall Boland

Member since July 2022 Lower Kilronan, Ireland
Background
I live on a small Island off the Galway coast on the west coast of Ireland. I've always been on, in or at the sea. I'm a commercial fisherman with over 30 years experience at sea. My passion is fishing and I'd like to get as many people as possible 'hooked' as well!!
Techniques
We usually fish reefs and ledges around the islands for Mackerel, Pollock, Ling and cod. We target Blue Shark, Porbeagle Shark in the deep waters outside the islands and Tope, a bottom feeding shark found in Galway bay.
