A fishing holiday in Ireland for wild trout or huge pike is every fisherman's dream. Captains Bay fishing lodge is on the Crover shore of lough Sheelin, Ireland's premier trout fishing lough.

The area abounds in lakes and rivers, amongst Lough Kinale, Lough Ramor, and Lacken Lake for Coarse Angling, the River Blackwater and Lough Sheelin for trout fishing.

Sheelin is famous for its mayfly fishing and for the quality and size of its hard fighting wild brown trout which it produces throughout the season. The cottage has its own private pier with free boat and engine.

The setting of the house makes for a superb self catering holiday for the complete family . The lake shore garden is seperated from the house and kids can play in the large top garden without going near the water

There are plenty of activities including bird watching, golfing at the local hotel, horse riding, and walking. There are also many sites of historical interest. The area abounds in historic attractions, yet is easy to get to from Dublin, being only 55 miles away.
