Maps and Information on Trout Fishing Lochs in Northern Scotland

Wild brown trout fishing at its best. The north of Scotland is a true fly fisher's paradise, with hundreds of lochs to choose from, some of them so remote the trout they hold haven't seen a fisherman, or a fisherman's fly, in years. All you need to reach and fish them is a good pair of boots, a compass and an Ordnance Survey map.....and a fly rod and box of flies.

 

 

 

The map below shows the main trout fishing centres on the northern Scottish mainland,  in the north highland counties of Caithness, Sutherland, Ross and Cromarty, Argyll and Inverness. Clicking on a red dot will take you to a page showing detailed maps of each of the main trout fishing areas in the north of Scotland with additional information on the fishing available.

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.

For a comprehensive guide to fishing on the lochs and rivers of Scotland, I would recommend that you invest in a copy of Bruce Sandison's excellent book:
