Loughs Lannagh and Bilberry
Loughs Lannagh and Bilberry (Islandeady) are two substantial lakes (>50 ha each) located between Castlebar and Westport.
Callow Lakes
Callow Lakes are situated close to the N26 Foxford – Swinford road. The two lakes (north and south) are approximately 100acres each and are joined by a narrow channel, which is navigable throughout the season. Both lakes hold good stocks of wild brown trout averaging about ¾ lbs to 1lb in weight, although fish between 2 and 3 lbs are regularly caught. They are not heavily fished and, in terms of the quality of fishing the offer, are probably the most underestimated trout lakes in the region. Trout in the south lake are of a slightly larger average size, while those in the north lake are smaller and more numerous. This lake gets good hatches of duckfly, mayfly and sedges and fishes particularly well with a moderate southwesterly wind in spring and early summer.
Lough Muck
Lough Muck is a scenic lough located in the high ground between Foxford and Callow. It has a large stock of small wild brown trout which rise freely, it has good road access and can produce sport for anglers using light tackle, particularly during a westerly breeze. Boats are available for hire locally.
