Salmon and Sea trout fishery - Glenbeigh - County Kerry
Season
Salmon: 17 January to 30 SeptemberSea trout: 17 January to 12 October
Brown trout: 15 February to 12 October
It is a fly only fishery. However, during high water conditions other methods (e.g. spinning) may be allowed by management. A feature of the river is the long duration of flood events. Lough Caragh dampens the severity of floods and discharges water into the lower Caragh River in a manner which does not result in rapid changes in flow. The fishery has a full time Fishery Manager and a number of water bailiffs.
