Salmon Fishing - River Laxford Scotland

O. S. Map 9

The River Laxford is regarded as one of the more productive rivers in northern Scotland but it is fished privately and therefore of little interest to the visiting angler.

The Laxford is an attractive river in north west Sutherland, draining the famous lochs Stack and More, once regarded by some as the best sea trout lochs in the whole of Scotland, but the fishing is expensive and most unlikely to be accessible to the casual visitor. Upwards of 200 salmon are taken most years on the river, which runs the three and a half miles from Loch Stack to enter the sea in Loch Laxford. Also at one time a most productive sea trout river but stocks of sea trout have declined dramatically in the last twenty years.

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.
