Fishery manager Colin Folan reports on their first fish of the season…

I am delighted to report that the first salmon of 2019 has been caught by regular UK angler Andrew Crouchman. The fish weighed 11.5lbs and was caught on Greenpoint Beat on a Black Shrimp on Saturday, March 23rd.  This is the third time that Andrew has landed the first fish in Inagh.

Go fishing…

Loughs Derryclare and Inagh lie in the lovely Inagh Valley with the Twelve Pins (Bens) of Connemara rising steeply to the west, and the Maumturk Mountain range to the east. There are two short connecting rivers, which contain four river beats. The fishery has spring salmon, grilse, sea trout and large indigenous brown trout. In recent years the fishery has seen a resurgence of fish numbers, and in 2010 – 2012, the fishery has produced Salmon to 15lbs, Sea Trout to 5lbs and Brown Trout to 12lbs.
