Open for 2026 with a brown-tag harvest surplus (S.I. 129/2026, tag code T10): salmon may be retained up to 31 August under tag and the bag limit, catch-and-release from 1 September. Rougher and less celebrated than its neighbours, but a genuine salmon and sea-trout river with more consistent water than smaller Kerry spate systems. A larger catchment means it holds a freshet longer — useful when the smaller rivers have dropped out. Some spring fish historically; grilse from June. Brown trout fishing in the upper reaches through spring. The Kerry Fisheries Board manages some access; local clubs hold others.
