Salmon Fishing on the
River Tay
Upper Islamouth, Lower Islamouth and Meikleour House Beat
The Islamouth Beat is a fly-fisher's paradise particularly between the months of April and October. In July, there is a grilse run providing thrilling sport. If bigger fish are your fantasy, then September and October can provide both the numbers and the size. This is a 5 rod beat with 2 boats, where you are looked after by two experienced and knowledgeable ghillies. They advise and assist where required and are happy to accommodate both skilled and unskilled anglers alike.
This is a
mile and a quarter double bank beat and the opportunities for wading are
exceptional. There is a roomy and secure boathouse with full
facilities where lunch can be taken.
The Meikleour House Beat runs for a mile and a half both upstream and down from the house, on both banks of the river. Although offering some excellent fly fishing, spinning is acceptable and indeed encouraged in high water.
