             Fishing Clubs and Associations in Scotland

Throughout Scotland there are many fishing clubs and angling associations which have been established by local anglers to manage the fishing on local lochs and rivers for the benefit of both club members and visiting anglers.
 

These associations are instrumental in the conservation, maintenance and improvement of the fishing on the waters under their control and in making the fishing available to both local and visiting fishermen.

Here you will find details of Scottish angling clubs and associations, including information about rivers and lochs available to visiting fishermen through membership subscription or through the purchase of day or weekly permits. I invite members or secretaries of Scottish fishing clubs and associations to send relevant details to me by e-mail of your club and your fishing for inclusion on this page. See the panel to the right for details.

Fishing Clubs

If you are a member of, or hold an official position in, a Scottish fishing club or association and would like to be listed on this page, please send the following information to me by e-mail. Your club or association name and address, telephone number, e-mail address and website address if you have one. Please give a description (of between 150 and 250 words) of your club, its membership, the waters under your control and information about the fishing available to visiting anglers, cost of permits, where to purchase permits etc. If possible, include a photograph of a local river or loch. The aim of this page is to promote and guide visiting anglers towards reasonably priced, publicly accessible fishing in Scotland.

Scottish Fishing Clubs

Jedforest Angling Association

J.A.A. offer all anglers the opportunity to fish beautiful stretches of the River Teviot near the historic town of Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders. Around 5 miles of the River Teviot, one of the major tributaries of the famous River Tweed, is available for salmon, sea-trout, brown trout and grayling angling. The association offers excellent fishing all year round. The River Teviot has good early season salmon runs with occasional fish into double figures. Grilse can be taken in the summer months. However it is the autumn runs which provide the best returns with fish in excess of 20 pounds. Grayling are particularly abundant on the Teviot and provide excellent sport throughout the autumn and winter months. Fish well in excess of 3 pounds are regularly taken and stories of "monsters" are common amongst the regular visitors who frequent the water. For those preferring the more gentle art of fly fishing the Teviot is well renowned for its wild brown trout with a good variation of streams and pools for wet and dry fishing

For trout & grayling permits call Shaws Newsagent (01835 863245) or Sanfords Country Sports shop (01835 863019). Both in the Canongate in Jedburgh.

For Salmon & sea-trout permits call Club Secretary Jim Oliver on 01835 863239.

Fochabers Angling Association

The Association has 1.3 miles of double bank fishing on the lower River Spey, about four miles from the sea. The association water is generally lightly fished by the 40 local members. Four visitor tickets are allowed per day. We have the fishing from opening day on 11th February until 10th August each year. The average size of spring salmon is around 8 or 9 lbs, but there have been a number of considerably bigger fish taken in recent years, since the nets came off. The grilse start to arrive in June and are usually in the 4 to 5lbs range. Sea trout start to arrive in ever increasing numbers from late April onwards.

In addition to the salmon and sea trout fishing, the association water offers excellent brown trout and grayling fishing, with specimen fish such as the 21 inch long grayling or the 5 pound brown trout taken in May 2006 from the Applegarth beat.

Day permits on either beat are available locally or online at FishAnnan  at a cost of £12 a day until 15th September and £30 a day from then to the end of the season on 15th November. They are also available locally.

Weekly permits are £55 for six days from the start of the season to 15th September and £90 for 5 days (excludes Saturdays) after 15th September.
