Put and take fly-fishery

Loch Clochan is situated 2 km east of Cloghan village on the northern side of the R357.
The lake covers an area of three and a half hectares and has depths of up to two and a half metres. A ‘put and take’ trout fishery under the control of the Cloghan and District Anglers Club, membership is open to all for a small fee per year. Members are entitled to fish Loch Cloghan at a reduced rate per day. For non-members a daily ticket can be purchased, with a reduced rate for juvenile anglers. All tickets are available from Daley’s Londis Supermarket in Cloghan village.

The lake is stocked regularly and the average fish size is three quarters of a pound but it is not uncommon to catch fish up to two pounds. The open season is between May the 1st and October the 12th, 8am to 10pm. Fly fishing from the bank or stands is the only method permitted and there is a bag limit of three fish per rod, per day. The size limit is twelve inches. Best returns are got on Nymphs and Muddlers, and there is a hatch of may flies on the lake.
