Fly Fishing In Scotland

We are coming to Scotland in late June from the US and would like to do some fly fishing. Do you have any recommendations as far as good places to go and to where we might locate some guides.

 

Your help is most appreciated.

Depends whereabouts they are coming Elton and what they want to fish for, hundreds of venues, wild to stockie, river to loch,

salmon, trout, sea trout, char???????????

 

 

If they give a hint if they are touring or whatever we can give them loads of info. That time of year the grilse runs are starting on a lot of rivers.

This place does guiding www.fishing-uk-scotland.com

and there are some good links through www.flyfishingscotland.com.

There is also a comprehensive guide service at Loch Rannoch you can access through www.dunalastair.co.uk. This area of Perthshire is about as beautiful as Scotland gets.

One place that would be worth visiting in June is Loch Ba on the road to Glencoe. It is FULL of small brown trout which come readily to the fly and it is free to fish. I am sure there must be guides who could help with it.

None of the guides are cheap and I haven't used them so I cannot say they are reccommended but hopefully this will give them a starter for ten.

Hi there

 

I live in central Scotland and flyfish most of the country.

 

PM me with the details of where you are staying and what sort of fishing you want to do and I can give you some info.

 

is it lochs (lakes) or Rivers you fancy? Trout / Salmon / Sea Trout / Rainbow Trout?

 

There are certainly plenty of options
