Welcome to Cavan Fishing

Cavan Fishing is a private website for members only and boasts in-depth documenting of coarse fishing in County Cavan. What I have tried to achieve here is to have anglers from all parts of Ireland and the UK help each other, by up to date reporting of fish catches, species caught and tactics used on the many lakes and rivers around Cavan that are featured on this website. I feel that to be sure to get right on the fish it helps to have someone who has recently fished a lake or river offer you advice as to where best to fish a particular venue! It makes perfect sense to all of us to fish over a spot that has been regularly fished and groundbaited over a prolonged period, as you are generally assured of decent catches due to the fact that the fish regard this as a feeding area.

In our website you will find detailed and helpful analysis of lakes and rivers in Cavan (and some border regions of Cavan), from species caught, to tackle tips and baits used, to mention but a few. In deciding how to impart this information to you, I have realised that people are usual wary about giving information too readily to strangers on "open forums". This is understandable after all, as we have a wealth of good fishing in our county that we don't want to see ruined by illegal fishing methods, fish removal and killing and venues being destroyed by litter louts and such, so I have deemed it prudent to make the information on the lakes and rivers sections only accessible to members of this site. All you need to do to become a member is register, which will entitle the member to browse all the up to date information of all the lakes fished in Cavan. There is a small subscription fee of just €5 for annual membership and as long as members continue to post their catch reports regularly the website will flourish and give you all you need to make your decision about where to fish and how to go about it.

Unsubscribed members may of course freely browse our website and have access to some of the other general information on display and we hope you enjoy the whole experience enough to register.

It is in all our interests as anglers to be proactive in the fight against irregular fishing practices and litter louts. Please report any such case to ourselves or directly with the appropriate Fisheries Board.
