Trout fishing

Angus boasts a variety of trout fisheries from remote hill lochs with stocks of native brown trout in spectacular scenery to well managed rainbow trout fisheries.

The hill lochs are in Glen Clova with information available from local hotels and tackle shops. An interesting loch is Loch Lee at the top of Glen Esk. Boats can be hired from Dalhousie Estates and not only are there stocks of native brown trout but also charr.

There is a number of well-managed fisheries featuring stocked brown and rainbow trout. These cater for the young and experienced angler alike, providing professional instruction and tackle hire.

Some of the tributaries of the main rivers provide trout fishing such as the River Isla, Kerbet Water and Lunan.
