Salmon Fishing in Scotland River Eachaig
|
O.S. Map 56
The River Eachaig
runs the four and a half miles from Loch Eck to the Holy Loch in the
Firth of Clyde. It is principally a sea trout fishing river of some note,
producing around 300 sea trout, some of them of impressive size, and
anglers catch a further 50 or so salmon in a season.

Salmon and Sea Trout Fishing on the River Eachaig
The fishing on the
River Eachaig runs
from June to September. Loch Eck, some six miles long and very narrow
and deep, also produces salmon and sea trout, with many fish taken on trolled
lures such as the Rapala and Kynoch Killer. The salmon and sea trout fishing is now owned by Salar Properties, with most of the fishing sold off on a timeshare
basis, thus making it, for the most part, inaccessible to visiting
anglers. Enquiries about the fishing on the loch should be directed to
the Coylet Hotel, Loch Eck, Dunoon.

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
