Salmon Fishing in Scotland River Ettrick and Yarrow
|
O.S. map 73
The River Ettrick flows for 15 miles to join the
Tweed at Selkirk. The Ettrick is joined by the main tributary, the
River Yarrow, one and a half miles upstream of Selkirk. Both rivers
flows through magnificent wild moorland. The Tweed Foundation has
done a good deal of work on habitat improvement on the Ettrick and
Yarrow in recent years and the runs of salmon are improving, with
around 100 salmon caught in a season, most of them in October.

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 |
