Salmon Fishing in Scotland River Lossie
|
O.S. Map 28
The River Lossie flows northwards through Morayshire
to Elgin, entering the Moray Firth a few miles further on at Lossiemouth. Although overshadowed by its illustrious
neighbours, the Spey and Findhorn, the River Lossie can, in suitable
conditions, provide some excellent salmon and sea trout fishing,
with something in the region of 100 salmon caught in
a season and up to 400 sea trout.

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. |
Salmon and Sea Trout Fishing on the River Lossie
|
The Lossie is a small spate river,
sluggish in parts and overgrown in places. Some parts are suited to fly
fishing, a single handed rod being adequate. A number of sea trout are
taken in the tidal section of the river at Lossiemouth, mainly by
spinning. The
lower 10 miles of the river are controlled by the Elgin & District
Angling Association. Permits are readily available from the Tackle shop
in Elgin. |
