About

Anglers must use the official entrances and on no account trespass on adjoining lands or park their cars in such a way as to obstruct roadways or gate entrances.

These are very popular lakes and are stocked regularly with up to 30000 takeable sized fish. The stock in Lough Mourne is supplemented with up to 10000 brown trout fingerlings. These reservoirs have a natural high productivity with good hatches of chironomids and caddis.

Facilities for people with disabilities

There is a smooth hardcore car park near a disabled fishing area. The area is accessible to wheelchairs via a short concrete path. Anglers should note that this is a reservoir, where low water levels can sometimes make fishing inaccessible to disabled anglers.

 

This site is managed by NIW and stocked by DAERA Inland Fisheries.
