A special Mass will be held for the Lough Neagh fishing community on Sunday 10th May 2026 at 3:00pm in the Fishermen’s Co-operative Building, Toomebridge. Presided over by Fr. James O’Reilly, this gathering offers a chance for fishermen, their families, and the wider community to come together in prayer, seeking a safe and productive season, and continued healing for Lough Neagh in the face of ongoing challenges such as blue-green algae. All are very welcome to attend.

🔥Lough Neagh Smoked Trout, Done Right 🔥

This is proper trout.

Wild caught Dollaghan trout from Lough Neagh, native, seasonal, and handled with care from water to plate.

We dry cure each fillet, then hot smoke it slowly over beechwood and oak in small batches using time-honoured methods. No shortcuts. No artificial additives. Just honest produce.

The result?
Firm yet moist fillets, a gentle natural sweetness, clean trout flavour, balanced salinity, and a smooth, lingering smoke finish.

This isn’t mass-produced supermarket fish.
This is local, traceable, and crafted the way it should be.

Perfect for:
• Breakfast
• Salads
• Pasta dishes
• Or just on its own with a squeeze of lemon

Support local fishermen. Eat something real.

📍 Available now — limited batches
