Fermoy Fish Eo na Mainistreach. Skip to primary content. The Munster Blackwater (Irish:. Abha Mhór na Mumhan. Munster dialect), the “Great River”) is one of the great rivers of the British Isles.

My swim spot, Fermoy Rowing Club, as seen from the water. And I swam downstream from Ballyhooly to Fermoy. Your Comment: Cancel...
