Highland Trout Lochs

A 4 night/ 3 day fully guided wild brown trout break for 1 or 2 anglers fishing some of the best lochs in Ross-shire.

The basic package includes 3 x day excursions within Ross-shire, but the trip can be extend if desired, or an overnight excursion to fish one of the Caithness lochs can be substituted in lieu of one of the days fishing a Ross-shire loch at an additional charge.

This package is fully guided and includes collection and drop-off from/at Inverness Airport or Railway Station, and all transportation for the duration of your stay by 4-wheel drive vehicle. We can provide all tackle and even waders and fishing clothes, so you can travel light - just get yourself here, and we'll take care of the rest!

Highland Trout Lochs - This short break is based in Evanton, Ross-shire, just 20 miles north of Inverness, the capital of the Highlands.

Inverness Airport has direct flights from London Heathrow, Gatwick and Luton, Glasgow and Edinburgh, and the city also has direct rail services from throughout the UK.

The area is one of outstanding natural beauty, with plenty of things to see and do other than the great fishing. There are many notable places to visit within a 45 minute drive including Inverness and Loch Ness, Royal Dornoch Golf Course, the Glenmorangie Distillery and numerous castles.

Ross-shire lies north of Inverness and extends from the West to East coast of this part of Scotland.

There is excellent brown trout fishing throughout the county, most of it on lochs. In Easter Ross, if conditions are right we will fish Loch Eye, one of the most productive lochs on the British mainland, Bad a' Bhathaich a remote Highland loch at an altitude of 1000 ft with crystal clear waters, and perhaps Loch Meig in beautiful Strathconon.

All these lochs fish extremely well to both traditional 'loch style' wet fly fishing and to modern nymph, buzzer and dry fly tactics. The choice is usually dictated by the wind and wave conditions on the day, and often you get the chance to fish all these methods in a single day.

Your guide will be a professionally qualified fly fishing instructor and guide and will be very pleased to show you any or all of the tactics.

Depending on the timing of your visit and current prospects, we may also fish in Wester Ross, where there are a myriad of good trout fishing opportunities, particularly in the Gairloch area.

Accommodation is not included in this package. We recommend Kiltearn House, a STB 4-star guest house on the outskirts of Evanton, but we can advise on other hotels, guest houses or self-catered accommodation.

From April 5th to July 31st.
