Fishing in Co Fermanagh
County Fermanagh in Northern Ireland, is renowned for its abundant waters and scenic beauty. The area offers a variety of fishing experiences from lake fishing to river angling. Coarse fishing can generally be enjoyed year-round, but the best times are typically during the warmer months, from late spring to early autumn.
Lough Erne is one of the premier destinations for coarse fishing in the region. Comprising two main parts, Upper and Lower Lough Erne, this expansive waterway system offers a variety of fishing opportunities. The Erne system consists of a huge amount of water with both still waters and flowing waters. In winter and spring the flowing waters are where the large roach and bream shoals are and during periods of mild weather, fishing at distance can produce good sport. In spring early summer vast shoals migrate into the system and once located big bags are possible. During periods of clear water (zebra mussels have an effect here) you have to fish at range, but if it's overcast and there's some natural colour you can catch much closer.
Inishcorkish Island, on Upper Lough Erne is known for its large bream and roach populations and Trory Point is a popular spot for perch and pike fishing. Bellanaleck offers good catches of roach, bream, and hybrids.
The lower lough on the Erne System has some quality bream, roach and pike. Hire a boat and you have hundreds of exclusive fishing locations. Popular fishing spots include Castle Archdale with good access to deep waters. Devenish Island has excellent fishing from the shore. Boa Island is known for pike fishing with access points around the island. Boat hire is available at various locations around the lough, such as Castle Archdale and Enniskillen.
Enniskillen, the largest town in County Fermanagh, is an excellent base for coarse fishing, offering access to various prime fishing spots in both Upper and Lower Lough Erne. The town itself has several excellent fishing spots along the banks, particularly near the Broadmeadow and Round O Jetty. The Broadmeadow is located near the town centre, it's a popular spot for anglers targeting bream, roach, perch and hybrids. The area is easily accessible and ideal for those looking for a convenient fishing location. Round O Jetty is another town centre location that offers good catches of bream, roach and perch. Portora Lock, situated on the outskirts of Enniskillen is known for its large shoals of bream and good-sized roach. The lock system also attracts perch and pike. Just outside Enniskillen, Killyhevlin provides access to productive fishing waters on the River Erne. It’s a good spot for targeting bream, roach and hybrids. Gortnacarrow is noted for tench, roach and bream.
Spring and Summer are the best times for coarse fishing, with warmer water temperatures encouraging fish activity. Early mornings and late evenings are particularly productive. Autumn can also be productive, especially for pike as they feed heavily before winter. In Winter fishing is still possible, though activity levels may decrease. Focus on deeper waters where fish tend to congregate. Wherever you fish in Ireland, the chances of catching fish are hugely improved by pre-baiting to attract fish into your chosen swim. Ideally this is done the evening before (or for a couple of days) using breadcrumb or local maize meal carrying particle baits such as sweetcorn, boiled wheat, hemp and pellets. Early morning and late evening are generally more productive as fish tend to feed more actively during these times.
