Available Fishing
River Aline
The River Aline is a medium sized spate
river which regularly produces wild Salmon, and
Sea Trout. Fed by the White River, the Black River
and the outflow from Loch Arienas, the river cascades
towards the sea loch of Loch Aline for some 6
miles through the wildness that is the Morvern
Peninsula. Easily fished with little wading required,
all 20 names pools are readily accessible.
There is a small run of larger Spring salmon,
followed from June onwards with the main run of
fish. These are mainly Grilse, with the occasional
Summer salmon. Best in 2006 was a lovely cock
fish of 16lb
Sea Trout run the river throughout the season,
but in April and May there is a run of very big
fish, up to 16lb, probably the descendents of
a Norwegian Strain introduced in the 60's.
A 6-8 weight single handed rod will suffice for
most situations. In full Spate however it is sometimes
wise to change to a 12/13 foot double handed rod.
Recommended flies are Ally's Shrimps, Silver Stoat,
Munro Killer, Cascade, Blue Charm, Thunder Stoat
etc.
Fishing on the River Aline for 2007 season
is available for £25 per day
Lochs Arienas & Doire na
Marst
These lochs both contain good natural
stocks of Salmon, Sea Trout and Brown Trout. Boats
are available on both lochs, but fishing from
the bank can be equally productive.
A feature of these lochs, particularly Loch Arienas,
has been the number of very large Brown Trout
caught. The record currently stands at 16lb (
2005 ), and in 2006 a lovely hen fish of 12lb
was caught on the dry fly !
General pattern loch flies are the norm, though
there has been recent success using buzzers, and
Sparkler flies.
Fishing on these lochs for 2007 Season
is available at £7.50 per rod per day
Hill Lochs
In the rugged hills of Morvern 15 Hill
Lochs offer unrivalled fly fishing for really
wild Brown Trout. Not necessarily big fish, but
fish that will give you a fight to remember. 1/2lb
- ¾ lb is the norm, but larger fish have
been taken particularly from Tearnait, the main
Hill Loch which has produced fish up to 4lb.
Some are easily accessible after a walk of about
30 minutes. Some may take a little longer to reach.
Every one is worth a visit, or why not make a
day of it and fish three or four!
Fishing on the Hill Lochs is available
for £5 per rod per day
