Ballyvary Fishery opens on Ballyvary/Clydagh system.

The North Western Regional Fishery Board is pleased to announce the opening of the Ballyvary Fishery. The fishery extends from the confluence of the Castlebar and Manulla Rivers to Lough Cullin and from Carrowkeel Bridge on the Clydagh River to Lough Cullin. A permit is now required to fish for all species on this fishery with the fishery open between 8am and 10pm. Permits cost €10.00 per day and these can be purchased from Tiernan Brothers, Foxford, Deys Supermarket, Ballyvary and Island Sports, Castlebar.

The Ballyvary Fishery is noted for its early run of spring salmon and frequently produces salmon before many other beats on the Moy system start to produce fish.
