Use the form for general enquiries, membership questions, photo submissions, or just to introduce yourself.

We aim to respond within a few days, though as a volunteer-run association there may be slower turnaround in the off-season.

For urgent matters – reporting an offence on the lough or a pollution incident – please phone a committee member directly or contact Inland Fisheries Ireland.
