River Ness Angling Club. Basically the fishing covers around three miles of the Town Water: it can be very productive when the grilse runs are on.
Loch Achonachie Angling Club water ranges extensively from stretches of the Rivers Conon and Blackwater to Lochs Achonachie and Meig etc.
Why not explore these unspoiled waters?
Dingwall Angling Club water on the River Conon covers around two miles of the tidal/estuary fly only fishings and can be good for sea trout as well as salmon. Please note that the rules specify that only thigh/waist waders must be worn; no doubt in order to reduce disturbance to fish from unnecessarily deep wading. Please check the rules for the numbers of fish that can be taken when using the exchange tickets.
