Overview
Dooneen is two lakes that are joined together by a small river,
there are two single platforms and four or five swims that have been cut
through the reeds.
There is an abundance of fish in this lake, Roach, Perch, Rudd, Hybrids
and Pike, there is also a good head of Bream to five pounds.
Methods
Having a depth of approximately sixteen feet, all methods work
well but remember the Bream like the bait nailed to the bottom, if there
are no signs of it having been recently fished then pre bait if these
are your quarry.
Lough Nahincha
Park on the right before the bridge and you will see the Lough
across a field, there are three pegs in this field and four across the
ditch and into the trees.. Or

the right, again you will see the lake across the field.
