Islay's rivers, lochs and coastline offer some of the most varied fishing in the Hebrides. Brown trout and sea trout run the island's rivers through the season, with Atlantic salmon in the right conditions. The sea off the coast holds pollack, mackerel, coalfish and occasional bass. Loch fishing is available across a number of the island's hill lochs throughout the year.

Islay House can arrange day permits for the island's best freshwater beats, and introductions to local sea angling operators for those who want to get out on the water. We recommend contacting us ahead of your stay so we can confirm what is available during your visit and make the arrangements in advance.

These can be arranged via email or phone — please contact us after booking.
