Annamoe Trout Fishery

Anyone know if Annamoe is worth a visit these days? Well stocked/managed?

Difficult to fish When I went there as a young lad you could pick fish out with your hands

OP I'd try southern county fishing resort it's a great set up

I've fished anamoe in the past its probably my favourite fishery it looks and feels very natural, the last time i was there the owner was talking about selling it, I wonder if he did?

Maybe that was my problem, I was trying with a fly rod and struggled to find a place where I wasnt casting on top of another angler. I said difficult to fish, not difficult to catch fish

Ah yeah I wouldn't have said it's a fly fishing spot at all. That southern county has two fly fishing lakes I believe.

Thanks - yes that place is only a stone's throw from me - has one small fly lake which I believe they are extending and I understand the other lakes are heavily fished by the coarse anglers
Only open at weekends at the moment too

There's a fly lake in lough mahon, near enniscorthy. Two carp lakes too. Only fished the carp lake which is very good.
