Fishing

There are dozens of lochs full of wild brown trout on Assynt Foundation's land. They range from wee lochs in remote mountain locations to big lochs with boats and easy access.

Visit the website www.assyntanglinginfo.org.uk for an online map and full details about the fishing and  how to get a permit to fish.

The local angling rules are  basically fly-fishing only, so no bait, bubble floats or spinning (except in designated spinning areas) allowed. Also, because Assynt is a very special place in conservation terms, please take care to "check, clean and dry" all your kit before using it here, to stop the transfer of non-native species and disease. www.invasivespecies.scot/biosecurity

Please limit your catch and return the larger trout, especially in the smaller lochs.

We wish you 'tight lines'.
