Salmon Fishing North of
Scotland
|
There can be few places
on earth to match the magnificent scenery, or the salmon fishing, of the north
highlands of Scotland, a land of rugged mountains and open moors, of
shining lochs and rushing rivers, a wild, uncrowded land with red deer
on the hill, grouse and curlew on the moor, trout in every loch and,
best of all, salmon in every river. The largest of the northern salmon
fishing rivers, the Ness, Conon and Beauly, flow eastwards to the North
Sea, in sharp contrast to the short, tumbling streams of the western
slopes. In some, there is the chance of a salmon from opening day in
January, while others, particularly the spate rivers of the west, must
rely for good fishing on summer rain to bring the salmon up from the
sea.
