Lough Acalla is a rich limestone lake of some 30 acres 2 miles north of Kilconnell, Co Galway. It is stocked with Rainbow Trout and some Browns.

Dry Fly, nymph and artificial fly lures work well.

Most of the banks on the lake are clear and wading is possible. In the summer the water here tends to be very weedy.

Car parking facilities are available along the shoreline.
