Martin Boyle, Netmaker.

I recently met Martin Boyle, whose hands make a netting needle move like a rapier.
On Ros na gCurrach pier, Maghery, near Dungloe Co.Donegal, Martin kindly showed me some examples of his craft. Martin learned his skills from his father and later at Fishery College. For many years, he has worked at hanging gill nets, for white fish and salmon. He also made lobster pots. From talking with Martin about the work he has done, these images can only hint at his skills.


Many Thanks Martin
