Where to fish?

Assaroe Lake

Assaroe Lake is a very under-fished but superb coarse fishery with very good bream, roach and hybrid fishing. 100lb+ of bream is a distinct possibility if pre-baiting with good quantities of ground bait. There are also some good roach. One local angler caught 11 roach recently, all between 2 and 2¼lb! Assaroe also holds some very big pike (a 46lb pike was caught in 1997, one of 42lb in 2000 a 41lb fish in 2001 and another estimated at 43 recently!). The E.S.B. have carried out bank development at Cliff and installed fishing stands on the back lough to facilitate angling.
