Fishing
With so many rivers, lochs and reservoirs and a huge coastline, Dumfries & Galloway offers great fishing in relaxing surroundings.
There are five major game fishing rivers in Dumfries & Galloway, the Border Esk, Annan, Nith, Cree and the Bladnoch, with a plethora of smaller rivers such as the Urr, Dee and the Water of Luce. These larger rivers compare more than favourable with better known waters further north and have long been famed for their prodigious runs of sea trout and greyback Solway salmon.
Until recently Dumfries & Galloway did not attract many fishermen looking for coarse fishing and the species taken were mainly pike and perch. Times have changed since then and you can now find waters offering fishing for carp, perch, pike, rudd or tench, as well as excellent specimens of pike and perch.
The long coastline of Dumfries & Galloway has attracted sea anglers for years, with magnificent views of the Lake District, Ireland and the Isle of Man on a clear day. The Flat Rock at Balcary is a favourite place for catching monster cod and the run of tope in Luce Bay is excellent, while Dogfish, bass, conger, mackerel and pollack also provide good sport in the local waters. Many sea angling trips are available throughout the region and shore fishing is also quite popular.
