Does anyone know anything about Lough Atorick, Co Galway?

I live on london, but I'm blessed with family just across the Derg in North Tipp, so I was thinking of having a wander over to wet a line in the Atorick this Summer.

I can't find much on the web, but I'm told it has a brownie or two ... can anyone add anything?

A small mountain lake,with small fish and vicous midges,if memory serves .Right beside the road ,so you can come and go easily ,

Pretty much what Gerryb said. I only fished it once from a drifting boat in a fairly high wind and I can still remember the little brownies coming out of the sides of the waves to hit our wets It was a nice spot and plenty eager brownies, in the 4 or 5 to the lb range. Go early season to avoid the midges April, may. It could be tough enough to fish from the bank, think quiet a bit of it was planted. Would be ideal in a tube.

Edit to add, its in Clare!

So it is - I stand corrected!

Many thanks for your responses. Sounds like it may be fun for an hour or two

Well lad, this place is in the same county as your home place...
