Itinerary

Day 1 - Arrive at Millbank House, located on the banks of the Mulcair River in the Shannon Region. It was built by the Keays family in 1733, and is one of Ireland’s most famous fishing houses offering professional services on site. Millbank House provides a relaxed atmosphere and offers all modern comforts to fishing enthusiasts. You are at leisure for the rest of the day. Spend the night in the house.

Day 2 - In the morning, visit the Mulcair River considered one of the finest salmon fisheries in the Shannon region. March is the best time for salmon fishing. You can also fish for small brown trout on the upper stretches of the Bilboa River. After fishing for salmon and trout, return to Millbank House for the night.

Day 3 - Enjoy fishing on the Mulcair River. Return to Millbank House for the night.
 
Day 4 - Visit the Castleconnell Salmon Fishery located on the River Shannon, near the quaint village of Castleconnell north of Limerick city. This world famous salmon fishery is divided into 8 beats, each about 800 metres long, with 3 rods to a beat. Fly fishing, spinning and worm fishing are the allowed methods by the fishery. Castleconnell is an important spring fishery, which can provide good fishing from mid-March to mid-May. Enjoy salmon fishing and return to Millbank House for the night.

Day 5 - Visit the River Suir that rises in Devil’s Bit Mountain, runs south to Cahir and then East to Waterford Harbour. It holds a heavy stock of fish and has several tributaries which also provide good trout fishing. The general character of the river is a long series of rather shallow gravelly glides with a very rich weed growth. Wading is generally easy and there is plenty of cover, though the trees do not interfere too much with angling. The ideal salmon fishing spots are downstream from Ardfinnan towards Carrick-on-Suir. After rounds of salmon fishing, return to Millbank House for the night.

Day 6 - You can also fish for small brown trout on the upper stretches of the Bilboa River. Return to Millank House for the night.
