Lough Neagh System - The Agivey River for Trout Fishing and Salmon Fishing

23 Miles,37km

Garvagh

The Agivey river is a medium (5-20m) sized tributary of the Lower Bann, which has a good head of Brown Trout but is probably better known as a Salmon and Grilse River. There are a few spring fish in March, and May sees the arrival of the first Grilse, but June, July and September are the best months for Salmon. The majority of the fish will be Grilse in the 4-6lb (2.75kg) but there are also a fair number of double figure fish around. Although a spate can help the fishing it is not always essential once the fish are in. Fly fishing, spinning and worming are permitted methods and a Ghillie service at £40/day can be arranged.
