Gillie Angling

Gillie Angling, West of Ireland Game Fishing

Gillie Angling is a service catering specifically for the needs of the game angler. The service is run by Roy and Sorcha Peirce from their home at Grasshopper Cottage on the shores of Lough Corrib. Being anglers themselves, they are totally familiar with the needs of the game fisherman.

Mayfly Trout


The West of Ireland has a vast and varied amount of water available to the fisherman. It would be easy if all waters fished equally well but, of course, they do not - each water fishing better at different times under different conditions. It is our objective to place you, the angler, in the most appropriate place at the most appropriate time to suit your requirements. It is the personal attention and on the spot information on the many fisheries in the West of Ireland that makes Gillie Angling one of the most comprehensive game angling services in Ireland.

To receive further information, or make a booking, please contact us with details of your requirements.
