Trout Fishing in Scotland Arisaig, Inverness

Arisaig is a popular centre lying to the south of Loch Morar, the deepest loch in Scotland and makes a good base from which to explore some excellent loch fishing, especially those who like to combine a bit of fishing with a walk in the hills. Here too are two once famous sea trout fisheries in Loch Eilt and Loch Shiel and their associated rivers Ailort and Shiel. The sea trout fishing has declined in recent years but the lochs are still worth fishing for brown trout.

The maps on this website have been reproduced with the permission of Collins Bartholomew.

Please note that these maps may date back several decades. Much of the human detail will have changed but the character of the rivers and lochs, and the trout and salmon in them, will be much the same as they have always been.

In addition to the information provided here, I would recommend that anyone planning a fishing or walking trip in Scotland should equip themselves with a compass and the appropriate Ordnance Survey map. The most useful of the O.S. maps for the fisherman is the Landranger series, scale 1:50,000. For each of the lochs and rivers listed here, I have given the relevant O.S. Map number. See Ordnance Survey Maps.
