Fishing in Cavan,
Ireland
The
Fishing in Cavan is renowned worldwide and many festivals and
fishing contests are held in and around the area each year.
Here at Gwencol we have easy access to all the major angling centres
with over 300 fishing lakes and miles of unspoilt stretches of the
river Inny and the Erne.
The local venues are numerous and include Lough Sheelin, Cavan's
premiere pike and game fishery. The start of the river Inny and
Lough Kinale, (a specimen Bream and Tench water and home of the
Irish Record Specimen Roach/Bream Hybrid)
Lough
Gowna one of the Mecca's for anglers with its massive shoals of
bream and hybrids is only 10 minutes away.
For
the river anglers, fishing the river Shannon at Lanesborough is only a 35 minute
drive away. Lanesborough is well know for its, 'Hot Stretch', named
after the hot water from the local power station - this venue can
produce many 'tons'.
The Royal
canal at Mullingar which is stuffed with Tench and other waters are
Loughs Lacken, Ramor, Bracklaugh, Corglass and Kill, plus several
smaller lakes.
All these waters hold an excellent stock of Bream, Roach, Rudd,
Tench, Perch, Pike, Trout and Hybrids.
For
my angling guests that want to explore the vast waters by themselves I have 19ft lake
boats fitted with fish finders available for hire and I can provide
my own detailed fishing maps.
I also offer a
FREE service whereby I can take you out pre-baiting, drop you off at
pre-selected swims or take you to where the fish are less pressured
and free biting.
