Trout Fishing in Scotland Kirkcudbright

Kirkcudbright, situated at the mouth of the River Dee on the Solway Firth, is within easy reach of a number of lochs to the north. Most hold trout and some offer excellent coarse fishing. Some of the lochs are managed by the local angling club and available by day permit.

The maps on this website have been reproduced with the permission of Collins Bartholomew.

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.
