Fishing Seasons In Scotland

The fishing seasons in Scotland

The salmon fishing season in Scotland is usually from early February until late October.
There are several regional variations to this which you can find as listed below.

The Brown Trout Season is from the 15th of March until the 6th of October.

Rainbow Trout
There is no closed season for rainbow trout as they are not an indigenous
species to the united kingdom and they can be fished for all year round.

A number of commercial fisheries are now staying open over the winter months
and rainbow trout fishing can be found throughout the year, weather permitting.

Coarse fishing and sea fishing is also permitted all year round.

There is no national rod licence required in Scotland as there is in England and permits for most of
the river systems can be obtained from a variety of local sources such as tackle shops or hotels etc.

Commercial fishery permits are usually obtained on site at the fishing hut or Lodge or shop.

The information listed throughout this site is for guidance purposes only and I cannot
guarantee that every detail is correct so always check direct with the relevant fishery.
