Rainbows in Finnegans Lake near Tuam

soapbloggs

Hi,

I'm curious about Finnegans Lake because it allegedly has Rainbow Trout that repopulate naturally, something which is unusual in Ireland. The website link for the lake I found seems to not be active anymore. Would anybody have a link to an active website or up to date contact details so I can enquire about fishing there? Is the lake still worth fishing?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Yea sure is, but there's lovely place in oughterard, it's a trout fishery small, but it's very nice and stocked well, micheal faherty owns it, if you could travel give it a go, as I said its small 2 acres but the fish in there fight like Bulls!!!

I went fishing there and took friends. We had a great day, especially as they were beginners, they became hooked very quickly. Thank you for the recommendation!
