We would be more than happy to give you more information on fishing in the area. Just send us an email with your questions. And for the real fishermen we also organize fishing holidays. We’ll arrange everything, all you have to do is book your flight and catch the big fish! Because we enjoy fishing as much as you do!
Fishing in Sneem means fishing in the beautiful surroundings of the Kenmare Bay. This fishing area is unique in many ways. The Bay lays in the warm gulf stream and is surrounded by the colourful mountains of the counties Kerry and Cork.
Every year Sneem surprises everyone with the most spectacular catches. A skate of over 2 meters long, a 65 pound tope, it can all happen in the Kenmare Bay. The Kenmare Bay is the home of more than 80 different species. Among these are skate, conger eel, ling, blue shark, all dogfish species (e.g. greater spotted dogfish, spur dogfish) and pollack.
There are 3 boats available for deep-sea fishing, among them is the fast Interceptor Kilstiffin. The boats depart every day from Rossdohan Pier. The skippers, who are the O’Shea family, have over 30 years experience in fishing in the Kenmare Bay, and know where to find the best fishing spots.
The surroundings of Sneem are also very suitable for Beach and Rock fishing. The South West is renowned as a classic shore angling destination, with its sandy beaches and rocky coastline.
Why not try to catch some fish in one of the beautiful lakes of rivers in the area: salmon, brown trout, sea trout, eel or rudd.
