About

Built in 1972, the Cornaa Fish Farm (Lag Vollagh Freshwater Fish Hatchery) is located in Maughold at the Ballaglass Glen on the east coast of the Island. A scenic area providing foot access right through to the Cornaa beach, the farm is owned and operated by the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture (DEFA). Producing and delivering rainbow trout to up to six reservoirs as a ‘put and take’ fishery for anglers, the farm produces 20,000 fish annually. The Island’s recreational reservoir fishery, has an excellent reputation among resident and visiting anglers for quality fishing in picturesque surroundings.

 

The farm is open to the public during school holidays with dates and times being subject to weather conditions and operational restrictions. These open days are advertised at a range of advertising platforms, including the Fisheries Facebook site that provides current times and dates. Parking is available in the Ballaglass Glen car park allowing visitors to take a short walk down to the farm as parking is limited. Alternatively, the electric tram provide a stop at Cornaa, 3 minutes’ walk away from the site. Visitors with accessibility issues are asked to contact Fisheries to arrange parking arrangements.
