River Dodder
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The River Dodder (An Dothra in Irish) rises on the northern slopes of Kippure in the Wicklow Mountains. From there it flows for some 20 km through Tallaght and the Dublin suburbs of Rathfarnham, Templeogue, Milltown, Clonskeagh, Donnybrook, and Ballsbridge before entering the Liffey at Ringsend.
The River Poddle also enters the River Dodder as it flows through Tallaght.
To catch sea trout on this river it is best fished in September at night when the river is in spate.
There is a weir just above the bridge at Ballsbridge and the river becomes tidal roughly where the bridge at Lansdowne Road crosses it.
