For an exciting fishing experience, welcome to Achagour Fishery, a series of man made lochs extending to some 7 hectares with a depth of between 10 and 14 feet at their deepest points. They are fed by the Red Burn which flows through them, bringing with it all the nutrients required to provide the perfect habitat for both Brown, Blue and Rainbow Trout, with which they are stocked. Although relatively new, they are already attracting numerous species of water birds which are taking advantage of the new habitat, and, in time, it is hoped that the lochs will become a wildlife haven. The area has been extensively landscaped and a continued program of sympathetic planting is planned. The lochs are open all year on a catch and release basis, with a 4-bag per rod/session available at extra cost. The lower lochs are fly only.
A Holiday Cottage is also available to rent - please telephone the Fishery number

Lochs Laoigh ('Lee') and Loch Lannsaidh ('Lounsey') are not far from Dornoch, and are both stocked in addition to the natural supply - Lannsaidh with rainbows and Laoigh with brown trout. Both lochs have car access (not tarmac) close to the lochside and have boathouses suitable for picnic lunches, etc. Bank fishing is also permitted.
The Dornoch Lochans (tel 01862 810600) also stock Rainbow trout and offers the fly fishers a chance to their skill with floating or sinking lines, dry or wet flies. Bait fishing on the two inner lochans gives everyone including the novice the chance to land a table-sized fish.
Permits
All permits are available from The Wee Spar, Castle Street 01862 810668 who can supply a booklet (£3.00) to help you get the most from your fishing experience. All the loch fishing is by fly only and bag limits of four fish pertain to the stocked lochs. Further information from the secretary Tim Nixon ddaasec@hotmail.com or call 01862 810973 (R Dickenson - Treasurer)
