RIVER Fishing & SEA ANGLING

The Fishing

Louisburgh is surrounded by superb options for both the keen and the casual fisherman. River fishing for salmon and seat trout is available in the Bunowen River which flows through the village. Salmon and sea trout are also fished in the local Carrowniskey River, the Bundorragha River which flows through three lakes, and the Erriff River.
Shore angling is popular all along the coast and in particular at Cross Strand, Roonagh Pier and Old Head while deep sea angling is available through a number of local providers, in the waters of Clew Bay.
