	River Suir, Clonmel, Tipperary, Ireland - VisitClonmel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		The main river lies entirely on limestone except for a few miles at the source and all the tributaries are on limestone, with the exception of the Nire, the Clodiagh and the upper reaches of the Multeen, which comes in from the west near Cashel.

		Only a handful of rivers can compare with it in terms of numbers of trout produced per square yard and I doubt if any river can equal it in terms of the overall numbers of trout that it produces and that are available to the angler.
