FISHING IN IRELAND

Ireland, and specifically Cavan, offers a great fishing holiday experience with wild waters, a variety of species plus scenic locations.

HIDDEN IRELAND

“Surrounded by a ring of mountains at the periphery, the flat central plane is filled with bogs and lakes, and is drained by a myriad of rivers - so Ireland can be fairly described as an “Elysium Piscatorum”, a fisherman’s heaven.”
