Lough Rinn is located about 2 kms south of Mohill village. Lough Rinn Garden Estate which is open to the public is located along the lakes north eastern shore. This is a shallow Lough and is about five kilometres long with an area of over 800 acres. This is regarded as a good coarse fishery where anglers can enjoy very good sport for bream to 4lbs, hybrids to 2lbs, roach and rudd to 1.5lbs, tench to 3lbs. Waggler or feeder works well.

FACILITIES AND ACCESS

There are several access points around the lake with car parking,  but it must be pointed out that there is no access through the Estate without seeking permission from the owner. 

There is access on the south eastern side of the lake through Coillte Wood a distance of 200 meters where about 20 pegs are available. 

On the Northern end of the lake there is an amenity area for caravans and camping with WC and boat access. The Shannon Regional Fisheries Board have a number of fishing stands in this area which are located on good bream swims. 

Along the western shore the Shannon Regional Fisheries Board have provided footbridges, stiles and a number of stands.
