Carrigadrohid Lake
Carrigadrohid Lake (Irish: Loch Charraig an Droichid) is a lake on the River Lee in County Cork, in the province of Munster, in the south of Ireland. Situated upstream (westward) of Carrigadrohid village, the lake is actually a reservoir, created for the Carrigadrohid hydroelectric power station, which was erected in the 1950s.
The lake also serves as a fishery for bream, rudd, roach, northern pike and perch.
