Fishing near Ballymahon, Co. Longford

Ballymahon sits in County Longford at the heart of Ireland's midlands, where the River Inny runs through the town before emptying into Lough Ree. The Inny is the centrepiece — a structured coarse and trout fishery rated among the better midland rivers, with slow glides, reed beds and deep bends around Ballymahon giving way to wider, pike-rich water as the river approaches the lough.
