    Hi All.
    Just wondering if anyone here has any recommendations for a place that might be suitable for fishing with overnight camping. Would like a place that has a lot of small fish & some big just to keep the kids & adults entertained. I've read some good posts about places in cavan & athlone but not sure where.
    Any experienced advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance. :)

    Angle Grove in woodford co gawlay is a decent spot. Good stock of carp and tench, and the kids will catch lots of rudd on maggots. Lots of midges though, they are a killer on calm days.

    Has anybody got a website address or contact details for this place, it was recommended to us as a good and safe spot for fishing and camping with our kids, I've been searching for the details online but just can't find any! Many thanks:)
