GARRANES LAKE (DUNMANWAY, WEST CORK)

Map of Garranes Lake

Approx. 25 acres and located 3 miles south-west from Dunmanway beside the road to Drimoleague. A track (150m) brings you to the shore, where boats are kept and where some attractive shore angling sites have been cleared. Take care, however as parts of the shoreline is soft and boggy and waders are a 'must' if you are not hiring a boat. The lake is partially hidden from the road which gives a satisfactory sense of quiet seclusion. A large stock of small native Brown Trout are present and large Rainbow Trout are regularly stocked to maintain a high stock density and give very good angling results. Small Eels and Rudd are also present. Recommended angling methods include worms - with afloat artificial flies or small spinners.
