Perhaps you'd like to combine a few days of fly fishing for trout in Scotland with a couple of rounds of golf at St Andrews, or shoot partridge & pheasant in the morning and go Atlantic salmon fishing in the afternoon? Our personalised service allows you the flexibility to design your perfect sporting holiday in Scotland; the ideal solution for groups of friends, families & sporting clubs.There is something very special about fly-fishing in Scotland, because the experience is not only about catching fish. In Scotland we have some of the finest rivers and lochs for catching Atlantic salmon, fresh-run sea trout, wild brown trout and grayling anywhere in the world. We also have the grandeur of the Scottish scenery and the unique history and tradition which defines our culture. There is also a huge diversity to the fly-fishing in Scotland. We have remote Highland streams where beautifully speckled wild brown trout will take a fly with an aggression that defies their small size. We have wild, wind-swept lochs full of fat, golden-bellied brown trout. There are other lochs which have been stocked with hard-fighting rainbow trout. Then there are the salmon rivers. There are those rivers of international repute; The Tweed; the most productive salmon river in Europe. The wide and magnificent River Tay which flows through the historic Perthshire countryside. The beautiful Aberdeenshire Dee; without question the best Spring river in the country. The characterful River Spey; probably the best fly water in Scotland.And, there are the less well-known rivers capable of producing the fishing experience of a lifetime. Rivers like the Teith, Don, Findhorn, North Esk, South Esk, Nith, Annan, Beauly, Brora, Conan, Teviot and Thurso. Dry fly fishing for brown trout before breakfast, salmon fishing during the day and a glass of whisky by the fire in the evening – could life be more perfect? "We had a fantastic time, great trout fishing and the cottage was beautiful. Next year we will try for the grayling." C. Mancuso, Italy |
The pike fishing in Scotland is some of the best in all of Europe. Virtually all of the major lochs hold a population of pike and in some cases they support huge numbers of very large fish. Ancient records talk of fish weighing over 30kg, but the current British record is a fish of about 22kg, taken from Loch Lomond.
Scotland is most famous for its links courses. Open Championship venues such as Royal Troon, the Old Course, St Andrews, Muirfield, Carnoustie and Turnberry entice golfers from around the world and never fail to inspire and amaze. Top inland venues include Gleneagles - with its three courses, the King's, Queen's and PGA Centenary Course, which will host the Ryder Cup in 2014 - Blairgowrie, where Greg Norman won his first-ever European Tour title, Dalmahoy, a former Solheim Cup venue, and the Macdonald Cardrona.
And what makes Scotland so special is that golf is accessible to everyone. You too can walk in the steps of all of golf’s greatest players.
