Map of Drumragh River, United Kingdom
A small river known as the Quiggery Water flows through Fintona, with bridges crossing it at Kiln Street and Mill Street. This river then joins with the Ballynahatty Water to form the Drumragh River. Omagh is sited at the confluence of the Camowen, Strule and Drumragh Rivers. The Camowen and Drumragh Rivers actually meet at Omagh to form the Strule. In 2006 a new Omagh Throughpass road scheme, developed at a cost of £9.7m, was opened. The project included a river bridge to carry the Throughpass over the Drumragh River.
Angling
The River Drumragh has excellent trout fishing over its entire length. The Drumragh is a noted brown trout river with good feeding allowing the trout to grow faster and larger.
