Fish Stock Survey of Lattone Lough, September 2021
This lake holds a stock of brown trout averaging (0.5lb) (0.23kg). The lake has recently been developed as a coarse fishery, and access for angling has been provided along the northern shore of the lake.
Lattone Lough has been surveyed on three occasions (2005, 2010 and 2013) since 2005 . Perch was the dominant species recorded on each occasion. Brown trout and eels were recorded on all three previous sampling occasions. One pike was captured in 2005, but this species has not been reported in subsequent surveys of the lake. The cyprinids, roach, bream, roach x bream hybrids and tench were all recorded for the first time in 2010.
This report summarises the results of the 2021 fish stock survey carried out on the lake using Inland Fisheries Ireland’s fish in lakes monitoring protocol. The protocol is WFD compliant and also provides insight into fish stock status in the lake.
