Fly Fishing for Brown Trout on a Highland Loch Scotland GFIM 1016


The brown trout gives wonderful fly fishing sport all over Scotland to both local and visiting anglers. Where trout fishing scores over the salmon is in its lower cost and wider accessibility. Nor is success with trout in Scotland so dependent on increasingly unpredictable river levels. Trout can be caught in river or loch in conditions that might defeat the most diligent and skilful of salmon anglers. That is not to say, of course, that Scottish trout are always easily caught. They can be somewhat dour at times. Unlike the salmon and sea trout, though, the trout do need to feed throughout the year and we can make reasonable judgements on how trout are likely to behave in given circumstances and choose our fishing tackle, flies and tactics accordingly.
