This is a well noted location on the lake for Bream fishing. This is a relatively shallow bay and again pre-baiting is recommended for best results.

FACILITIES AND ACCESS

Access is gained across the camping site with the owners permission. This can be arranged by contacting Paddy Lenihan Hudson Bay Caravan Camping at the site.

TO GET THERE

Take the N 61 North out of Athlone for about 6 kms, following the sign posts for Roscommon. Take the second right after the Texaco Garage and follow the road over the railway track into Hudson Bay Hotel, and then continue to the Camping Site.
