Description
The Iveragh peninsula which the Ring of Kerry circumnavigates is the westernmost land mass in Europe. Off its shores is the wild Atlantic Ocean and it is this which has earned Kerry it's world famous reputation for salmon and trout fishing.
The fishing industry in Ireland represents an important economic activity, generating national income and providing local employment. The industry contributes approximately �700 million a year to the national income and provides 11,000 jobs, mostly to people living around Ireland�s coastal regions. The main areas in Ireland�s fishing industry include commercial fishing, processing, marketing and fish farming. Bord Iascaigh Mhara (BIM) is Ireland�s national body for marine fishing and aquaculture and aims to maintain and develop the Irish fishing sector.
