The Colebrooke River is a river in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. Its source is in the Sliabh Beagh mountains where its known as the Many Burns.

The river flows in a south-westerly direction, through Maguiresbridge, before merging with the Tempo River and finally entering Upper Lough Erne near Inishcollan, Lisnaskea.[1]

Angling

The river has abundant large bream, roach, perch, rudd and pike. Salmon and Lough Erne trout can be caught towards the end of the season when moving from the Lough to spawning grounds in the upper reaches of the river.[2][3] Some of the river is private fishing water on the Colebrooke Park estate.[4][5]
