Coarse
& Pike Fishing in Ireland
A
Complete Angling Guide & Holiday Planner to the Shannon Region
About
this Guide
Coarse angling tends be organised
around 'centres' usually towns and villages, where experienced caterers specialise in looking
after angling visitors. We describe fishing on this guide around centres
and provide much additional and supplementary information which
includes Specimen Fish Awards, Angling Advice, Coarse Fish
Species in Ireland and angling notes etc.
Coarse and Pike fishing is rated on the guide
to facilitate visiting anglers in selecting suitable fisheries
and preferred target angling species. While any rating
system is subjective in its interpretation, we
consider a number of important criteria in our
assessment of each fishery, they are angling feedback, stock
surveys where undertaken, specimen fish awards. It must be stressed
that such a rating system is only a guideline and
does not purport to be an absolute classification
system as there are too many other factors and
variables which can affect and influence the
angling potential of any water such as weather
conditions, time of year, and an anglers ability and skill etc.
We feel the rating system is a fair and accurate
reflection for each fishery based on the best
available knowledge/ information and must be
interpreted as such. We constantly review our ratings
to reflect the most recent angling trends.
