The Killarney Lakes are three in number, Lough Leane, Middle Lake and Upper Lake. It is excellent for salmon and brown trout.

The most popular flies are Bibio, Black Zulu, Jungle Cock, Bog Fly, Alder and early in the season Hawthorns and Duck Flies.

You will also find some wonderful wild brown trout fishing in the Gap of Dunloe/Black Valley region. This area is full of small lakes and streams.
