Shane Sullivan, Tralee had his biggest ever rainbow on the fly from Barrfinnihy Lake, guesstimated at 3.5lb. He was delighted with himself. Shane is a is a regular angler on the lake.
Barrfinnihy Lake is 6½ miles from Kenmare and one mile off the Kenmare to Killarney road, at Molls Gap. In a superb location, the entire shoreline is overlooked from the nearby road. Access is open and excellent, the rocky shoreline 100% fishable and the sparkling clean, clear lake waters especially attractive. The lake holds a very good stock of small wild native Brown Trout and adult Rainbow Trout are stocked regularly to maintain a high stock density and give worthwhile angling.
