300 A YEAR OF LIBERTY. 



and October (should the weather be wet), will afford excellent salmon 

 and white trout fishing. Three miles farther on is 



Waterville, where is a capital hotel at the bottom of the village 

 the "Hartop Arms." Lough Currane is well known for the excellent 

 salmon trolling it affords in spring; here, also, red trout are 

 numerous and fine. During the month of May the salmon rise well 

 to the fly. In July and August the lake is full of white trout, at 

 which season also a few grilse will fall to the share of the angler. 



The Cummeragh is an affluent of Lough Ourrane, connecting it 

 with two small mountain tarns. Towards the close of the season 

 these waters afford good sport. 



The Lesser Blackwater (station, "Old Dromore Hotel"). This river 

 is admirable in summer and autumn, but requires rain to bring it 

 to concert pitch. Any angler intending to visit the district should 

 write to the hotel keeper for information, as the angling is occa- 

 sionally let to a club. At the head of Bantry Bay are two small 

 rivers. 



The Owrane and Beal, which afford good angling should the 

 summer be wet. 



Following the coast line back to Cork, are several small streams, 

 with which the writer has no personal acquaintance. 



We have now conducted the tourist over most of the principal 

 waters in the island; and, in conclusion, have only to wish him 

 health and good sport when he visits them.
