Horse races are such craic, but when I want to chill out, river fishing is my best bet

Thrills at the races and chilling by the lake
I love my sport, and the atmosphere at Punchestown National Racing Festival is always electric – the local pubs are usually good for a tip, too! To chill out I’ll do some angling on the Upper Bann River. It’s just so relaxing there.
