Shouldn't anglers be covered here as well as hillwalkers?

Its an interesting one that. Most of the marks I fish in Donegal involve a walk over privately owned ground but aside from the rocks at Teelin I have never been told to get out. Don't know what other peoples experience is.

there was a thread here a few months ago - which basically concluded that legally it was all in limbo(rights were given to the public and not ratified, anything that went to court (and the guards) sided with the land owner) and that common sense should prevail - ask if you can cross beforehand, dont knock walls etc.
