Default Fishing Scotland

G'day,

There is the possibility that I may be in Scotland this May. Would
there be any advice out there about the possibility of wetting a line
in the land of Robbie Burns?

I am planning to give fly fishing a try this summer. Would taking an
inaugural fly fishing expedition in the highlands be asking too much?

Michael


Where do I start!!

When in May and where are you staying?

Try here for places to fish.

Now that we have got that out of the way it really isn't that difficult to
find free/cheap fishing as long as you know where to go. You mentioned the
highlands, I have a weeks camping/fishing trip to the highlands every year
in May, and it has never cost more than £100/$180us and that includes
travel.

I have fished Attadale, great if you don't mind the 13 mile walk to most of
the lochs, which is free, Lochinver, £30 for a weeks fishing on approx. 150
lochs, Kilmelford, used to be £25 for the weeks fishing but may be higher
now, which has approx 20 lochs.

If you want to read more of these places go to my website and click on the
links in the navigation bar.

If you can supply me with a bit more information I may be able to put
something together for you, can't promise though
