Trout Fishing in Scotland Glasgow South
|
Trout fishing is not the first thing we think of when mention is
made of Glagow. There are, nevertheless, many lochs, dams and
reservoirs of varying size to the south of the city which
offer trout fishing. Some are private fisheries, some have been
developed as put and take rainbow trout fisheries.

The maps on this website have been

Please note that these maps may date back several decades.
Much of the human detail will have changed but the character of the rivers and
lochs, and the trout and salmon in them, will be much the same as they have
always 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. |
