Kevin Collins is a Zpey Ambassador and Pro Team member in Ireland.
He has been fishing since he could walk and at the age of 5 (25 years ago) started fly fishing the wild loughs in the west of Ireland for brown trout.
As time went his my love for salmon fishing quickly evolved and he seldom looked back.
Fishing waters:
Fishing waters:
Munster Blackwater, River Laune and River Feale but most of the time you will find him either fishing or teaching on the Blackwater.
He also hosts and guides groups every year to fish the World famous River Gaula.
Favourite Zpey setups:
Zpey Ztealth Zwitch 11ft #9 teamed up with the 6/9 epsilon reel for fishing the smaller rivers.
12.6 Ztealth #8 teamed up with the Zen reel for most of his fishing in Ireland.
And for spring in Ireland and fishing the Gaula and the big rivers of Norway, his go to set up is the 14.6 #10 teamed up with the 10/12 epsilon reel which is, as he says: "A match made in heaven that will not let you down"
