LOUGH AVAUL UPPER (GLENGARRIFF, CO. CORK)

Map of Lough Avaul Upper

Approximately 2½ miles south-west from Glengarriff beside the Castletownberehaven road and half a mile beyond Lower Lough Avaul - its sister lake. A 10 acre, clear water mountain lough in scenic rugged terrain with attractive shoreline angling sites - roadside shore is best and to the left of waterkeeper's house. A boat is also available. Some native wild Brown Trout are present and an excellent stock of Rainbow Trout, with some small Eels and Rudd. Adult Rainbow Trout are stocked regularly to maintain a high stock density and to give satisfactory angling returns. For best angling results use worms - with a float - or try a small spinner. Artificial flies can be fished best from the boat.
