The Adventure Starts Here

Co. Galway

Just beyond Galway town you are soon off the beaten track and into 'old world' Ireland, ideal if you're looking for peace and quiet or fancy a bit of touring. There's the massive Lough Corrib, famed for its ferox trout, but with quality coarse fishing too. Our main centre is around Portumna on the Shannon at the northern end of Lough Derg. Around Portumna is the place for big weights of quality Bream, Roach and Hybrids. Shoals of Roach and Hybrids feed all year round and many move out of Lough Derg and into the river in spring and summer. These are quality Roach to 2 lbs and some hybrids.
