The Suck Valley to the west of the county has excellent stocks of bream to 8Ibs and roach to 2Ibs, and don't be surprised to find a large hungry pike snapping at your bait. The River Shannon with its vast inlets and back water lies to the east. There are well developed sections of the lake in the Athlone-Kiltoom area where bags of Bream and Roach in excess of 100Ibs are common. Strokestown and Tulsk Lakelands have consistently produced specimen Rudd and Bream Hybrids. Bags of these species to 60Ibs are common for a day's fishing in this district. The Boyle River and its network of lakes, in the Elphin- Carrick-on-Shannon, and Boyle area has a great diversity of coarse angling. Tench to 6Ibs are common in this area and the head of Roach is excellent here with mixed bags to 80Ibs. The River Lung in Ballaghaderreen has a big stock of Roach and large shoals of bream. Just where to fish in Roscommon is a difficult choice with so many lakes and rivers to choose from, and all with stocks of fish to specimen weight.
Description
Fishing facilities have been erected on most of the lakes and natural swims are kept clear to facilitate the angler.
Location
County Roscommon is surrounded by prime coarse fishing rivers and lakes.
