Fishing near Drogheda, Co. Louth

Drogheda sits at the mouth of the River Boyne in County Louth, where the river meets the Irish Sea between Mornington and Baltray. The Boyne is the centrepiece of local angling — a seventy-mile river with strong runs of salmon and sea trout on its lower reaches, alongside wild brown trout throughout. Shore anglers work the estuary mouth and nearby coastal marks, while coarse fishing is found across the wider region.
