Horse races are such craic, but when I want to chill out, lake fishing is my best bet
Tom, Fermanagh
Thrills at the races and chilling by the lake
I love my sport, and the buzz at The Leopardstown Horse Racing Festival is electric (and the local pub is always great for the odd tip and a hot whiskey to warm me up). If I’m chilling out though I’ll head up to Lough Erne for some fishing.
