Barons Court Ireland

Fishing

The River Mourne is certainly one of Ireland's salmon fishing jewels. The estate has a private beat comprising of 20 named pools, close to the junction of the rivers Derg and Mourne. The most renowned and famous pool is the Snaa which is a large holding pool before the confluence of the River Strule and River Derg. This high quality fishery is a “fisherman river” where good wading skills are necessary. It is mainly fished from the left bank. The fishing is let on a beat basis with two rods per beat and local expert knowledge can be provided by the Estate's ghillie. The rolling catch average over the last 7 years is between 150-200 salmon per year.

Driven Woodcock Shooting

Barons Court attracts a high number of woodcock due to its mild winter climate, ideal cover and good quality feeding ground. Much of the woodland cover has been carefully managed to create the perfect habitat for woodcock and allows the guns to take both a sporting and safe shot. The shoot is led by the Head gamekeeper together with a team of highly experienced beaters together with their well-trained dogs drive the woodcock towards the waiting guns. The ideal number of guns is eight. There is a minimum charge per day based on eight guns. All the arrangements for shooting are made by the Estate including transport and a light lunch.

Driven woodcock shooting is offered in November, December and January providing the team of guns a two day back to back shoot. As a guide the average bag expectancy is 15-20 birds per day, as this is wild game shooting no guarantees can be given.
