JRZ,

We stayed at the Adare manor a few years back and it is a wonderful place to visit. We were there during the month of Oct. and were hit with some big rains so the river that goes through the resort/property was a wash out. I know some folks who have fished there and the river holds some nice fish. Browns seem to be the main deal with a small run of Atlantic salmon. If you play golf, make sure to bring those sticks as well. I'll dig back into some old travel notes to see what some of the details were b ut I remember there was a river keeper affiliated with the manor.
