"Prods Pot on 29/11/2025

Bryan & Ray

We meet at the Hub for 11 am on Saturday morning. The plan was to go to the Mines in Sligo, but with time running a little late, it was decided to go for a trip down Prods Pot in Fermanagh.

Got the gear from the gear store and drove to the parking site, got geared up on a frosty, cold mountainside!

We started the walk up to the cave following the Ulster Way for three marker posts, then going left down to the Doline in the trees.

Ray rigged and Brayan de-rigged on the way out.

Some small adjustments on the way down, we make good headway and squeeze past the boulder on the top of the fifth pitch down into the mainstream way.

De-kitted and set the SRT Kits on the rock, we went downstream and up Asshole Passage and to the sump at Papist Passage, then further downstream through the Canal, which is now fully walkable due to extra sand and silt settlement from the flood.

Past the Ducks ( Water level where high), but no rain for the rest of the day was in the forecast, down to the sump.

With our feet and legs nearly frozen off us, we decided not to do upstream of the cave and to start heading back up the pitches.

With a good day's caving down, we headed back to the Hub for Whiskey
