- Long ago, fishing was a great industry and pastime in this district. Fluke-fishing was very common here. Fluke are found in fluke channels with sandy bottoms. There are fluke channels in every shore, there is a fluke chanel in 'Cuanna Reedy', another in Cúan na bháid ; and another in 'Cill. Rúis bháirne'.The fluke are very often caught with stick-nets when drafting for other fish.
