So if you do decide to come for any type of Angling holiday why not email Roy on unabhan2@eircom.net. For some information on the fishing before you book anything and give us a chance to put the right package together to suit your needs.

Boyle River

The Boyle-River flows from through Lough Gara, Lough Key, Oakport Lough and Drumharlow Lough before entering the Shannon above Carrick-on-Shannon. Cuppanan-Bridge will fish well in early season with bags of Roach to 50lb, and big Bream and Hybrids. With a dry summer the water becomes to shallow and weedy and is difficult to fish, other places to fish include Drum-Bridge, Knockvicar and Cootehall all can be productive on the day.

Lough Key

This is a large lake but access can be difficult and the best results can be gained by using a boat to access one of the islands or the shore. Having a very good stock of Bream, Roach and Hybrids. The best areas for coarse fishing are the Doon shore, Erris bay and the Knockvicar side of the lake. The lake produced the Irish Pike record on the 11 April 1993 of 39lb 3ozs.

Lough Derreen

Located approx 7 miles from Boyle along the Knockvicar road. Fishing is into10 to 20 feet of water along any of the 50 single stands on the lake. The lake holds good stocks of Bream, Rudd, Roach, Tench and Hybrids. The lake is accessed though Coillte land. Anglers should note that you are not allowed to drive cars to the lake without express permission from Coillte.
