Sea Trout Fishing in Scotland Loch Stack and Loch More
|
O.
S. Map 9
Lochs Stack and More, at the head of the River Laxford, have long
been among the best of Scotland’s sea trout lochs. Fifty years ago,
Loch Stack was regarded by many as the best in all of Scotland.
Sadly, in common with other lochs and rivers in the north west,
stocks of sea trout have declined dramatically in recent years.

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. |
Sea Trout Fishing on Loch Stack and Loch More
Fishing is by fly, with dapping being popular on the deeper Loch More.
The best of the fishing is from June onwards with sea trout averaging a
pound and a half and salmon of around six or seven pounds. Boats may be
hired from the Scourie Hotel, Scourie, Sutherland.
