One thousand maps of the
fishing rivers and lochs of Scotland |

Maps of one
sort or another are essential for the visitor to Scotland. For anyone
planning a fishing trip in Scotland, the national or regional map will
give an idea of location and distance, the road map will facilitate
navigation to the chosen fishing destination, while larger scale maps
such as those produced by the Ordnance Survey will provide useful
topographic detail of all the Scottish lochs and rivers and the surrounding landscape.
In the Where to Fish pages of this website, I have included extracts,
from the appropriate Bartholomew half inch to the mile series of maps,
of those parts of Scotland likely to be of most interest to the trout,
salmon and sea trout fisherman planning a Scottish fishing trip. Some of
the maps date back several decades but, while details of the human
geography (roads, buildings etc.) of Scotland may have changed, the essential, and
far more important, detail of the Scottish rivers and lochs will not have changed
significantly, nor will the qualities of the wild trout and salmon they
hold. All the maps featuring on this website have been brought together
on this Maps page. They may be accessed either by clicking on a blue dot
on the map or by selecting a name from the lists below.

Scotland. Clicking on a blue dot will take you to a page

The maps on this website have been

In addition to the information provided
here, I would recommend that anyone planning a fishing or
walking trip in Scotland should equip themselves with a compass
and the appropriate Ordnance Survey map. The most useful of the
O.S. maps for the fisherman is the Landranger series, scale
1:50,000. For each of the lochs and rivers listed here, I have given the
relevant O.S. Map number. See
Ordnance
Survey Maps. |
