Trout Fishing on North Uist, Scotland
A glance at the map below will show that there is
probably more water than land in North Uist, all of it offering the
possibility of some excellent trout fishing, particularly on the
famous Machair lochs on the western fringe. Many excellent trout
fishing lochs are available to visiting anglers through the North
Uist Angling Association, while the lochs on Benbecula are managed
by the South Uist Angling Club.
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.
