Fly Fishing:
Screebe House offers guests an exclusive fishing experience on it's impressive system of loughs and lakes abound with brown trout, sea trout and salmon.
Our experienced team provide traditional fishing boats and can organise a Ghillie (professional guide) for your fishing tour if required.
Conservation is at the heart of what we do and we will never allow more than one boat on any of our lakes at any one time. While the salmon and bridge pools are fished by only two rods at any one time. This keeps conservation at the heart of what we do whilst at the same time giving you the best opportunity to have a successful day.
Each season, our fishing experts will keep you up to date with the best timing for the fish runs and will be on hand to answer any questions you may have. To subscribe to the Screebe Fishing Newsletter email booking@screebe.com.
