Trout Fishing in Galloway, Scotland
The area around New Galloway has a good variety of
fishing, with many trout lochs and burns for the fly fisher to
explore, most of them available to the visiting angler at reasonable
cost. Newtopn Stewart Angling Club manages some of the lochs and
also has fishing on the River Cree and Bladnoch.
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.
