Inland Fisheries Ireland

Ballina, Co. Mayo is home to Inland Fisheries Ireland, a body providing Government Services. Inland Fisheries Ireland works to conserve, protect, and develop the freshwater angling resource in Ireland. This includes managing fish stocks, regulating fisheries, and promoting sustainable angling practices. Such organisations play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity and supporting the economic and recreational value of Ireland's rivers, lakes, and streams. Their work often involves scientific research, habitat improvement, and collaboration with various stakeholders to ensure the long-term health of aquatic ecosystems for the benefit of both wildlife and people.
