Clonmel Golf ClubMountain Road, Lyreanearla, Co.

The clubhouse, built in 1984 with an alpine-like design, has appropriately a backdrop of fir and pine-covered mountains. "It's a hightly enjoyable layout that remains largely unrecognised… You get the feeling of getting away from it all with only the sound of streams babbling down from the mountains and the birds to interrupt the tranquility".

Trout and Salmon Fishing - Clonmel areaCo. South TipperaryThe Suir provides excellent Trout fishing throughout the season which starts in March and ends in September. Average Weight: 1/2 lb, 3/4lb, 2, 3 and 4 lb. Trout are recorded each season, but not in any great numbers. Mostly Fly Fishing is best, any legal method is allowed on most stretches. Best months are from April on when the evening Rise starts. Trout will start to feed about an hour and a half before dusk and continue to rise until about an hour after dark. SALMON Salmon fishing has been on the decline over the past number of seasons (mainly due to drift netting at sea with mono filament nets which are illegal for Salmon fishing). However, some fairly good runs of Atlantic Salmon still manage to enter the Suir from June until the end of September when the season ends. Fishing is provided by local fishing clubs and private fishing owners. Show me all the details for Trout and Salmon Fishing - Clonmel area | |
