Fishing near Moycullen, Co. Galway

Moycullen sits in County Galway on the eastern shore of Lough Corrib, Ireland's second-largest lake and the centrepiece of fishing in this part of the west. The surrounding cluster of smaller lakes — including Ballyquirke, Ross Lake and others ranging from 6 to 400 acres — are developed for coarse angling, while Lough Corrib itself draws game anglers after salmon and trout. Lough Mask lies to the north, and several rivers including the Clare, Owenboliska and Cashla drain the wider catchment.
