The owners of "Aillebaun" work in close cooperation with TJ's
Angling Center.

The owners specialise in angling holidays and are keen
anglers themselves. They have boats for hire and also provide an excellent
ghillie service. They provide access to new swims on Lough Derg which
last season yielded huge bags of bream, roach and perch. A bait fridge
is provided on the premises.
The River Shannon, Lough Derg and the Clare Lakes, all
of which are nearby, are excellent course fisheries and annually produce
record bags of bream, roach, tench, perch, hybrids and of course, pike.
Many pike in excess of 20 lbs. are landed and released each season. Salmon
fishing is available at Castelconnell on a day ticket basis. Trout fishing
is best during the month of May, dapping and dry or wet fly , but trout
may also be taken trolling at other times.
Sea
fishing in the River Shannon estuary or in the Atlantic Ocean off the
coast of County Clare can be arranged.
Killaloe has 2 fishing clubs. St. Flannan's Fishing
Club holds competitions almost every Sunday. New members are wellcome.
Day tickets may also be purchased.
On the 24th of September 2003 the 6th
International Masterline Pike Fly Angling Challenge will be held.
This event which was first run in 1998 has proved to be a great success
and will be keenly contested again this year.
