The Galway Salmon Weir Fishery

The Corrib River or Galway Fishery starts at the defined mouth at Nimmos Pier, near the Claddagh, in Galway Bay and consists of the main river, the Galway City canals, the two outlet rivers from lough Corrib and a portion of Lough Corrib.

Spring salmon can be caught in the fishery at Galway City from the month of February and the best grilse fishing is in the months of May and June. Salmon fishing continues throughout the season from the Weir at Galway City as far as Lough Corrib.

A half-day's fishing on the Weir can be had for as little as €18. Prices for the New Beat start at €15.Full details of the tariffs for 2008 and the fishery regulations can be downloaded here.
