The River Blackwater is Ireland's third largest river. At Cappoquin the river makes a 90 degree southerly turn towards the estuary at Youghal. The waters are tidal and fresh salmon and sea trout are constantly running. Fishing opens from the 1st of February and closes on the 30th September each year.

Cappoquin Salmon and Trout Anglers Association is one of the few clubs on the river and has 4 miles of double band fishing (including 7 names pools) available to members and day ticket holders.

The Blackwater holds many species of fish including salmon, sea trout, brown trout, pike, roach, dace, eels, mullet and shad. The river is renowned for its enormous runs of salmon, 8063 being caught by rod and line in 1998 season - Cappoquin accounted for 235 salmon and 280 sea trout. The heaviest fish in recent years for the Cappoquin water was a huge 26 pounder taken and landed at the Kitchen Hole by Jim Fitzgerald.
