Mill Lough Bellanaleck

Was working in area of Enniskillen today so loaded my fly gear into the car in case I got a chance to use it.

Work finished about 4pm so headed off to Mill Lough in Belanaleck. Few rain showers around but set up gear anyhow. This lough is very scenic and is well equipped with fishing stands around the shores.

A lot of the shores acan also be waded and boats are allowed which can be hired locally

and are moored at one of the two car parks. The water was gin clear and showing the stoney marled bottom to this lough . Fly life was prolific with large olives and buzzers hatching and fish taking advantage.

I think this lough gets a few mayfly as well as it is only a stones throw from the Erne and access to good coarse fishing with good stands for pike, roach, rudd and bream.

Only fished about an hour and hooked a couple of rainbows around 1lb. I must try to get back here for a longer spell and get a boat on the water. Some really large fish were showing further into the lough.
