Keshcarrigan Lough

About

Keshcarrigan Lough (Irish: Ceis Charraigín loch, meaning 'Kesh, or causeway, near the little rock, lake') is a mesotrophic freshwater lake near Keshcarrigan in County Leitrim, Ireland. Known for quality coarse fishing, the lake allows bank fishing from concrete stands on the northern shore, two with wheelchair access. The ecology of Keshcarrigan Lough, and other county waterways, is threatened by curly waterweed, zebra mussel, and freshwater clam invasive species.
