Trout Fishing Lochs at Invermoriston
Invermoriston lies at the mouth of the River Moriston where it enters Loch Ness. The many small lochs lying to the north of Glenmoriston, in the Invermoriston and Balmacaan Forest areas, offer some great hill loch trout fishing. Lochs include Loch an Staca, Loch na Criche, Loch Liath, Loch nam Meur, Loch na Beinne Baine, Loch nan Eun, Loch nam Breac Deargh and many more. To the west lie the larger lochs of Mullardoch, Affric and Beinn a Mheadhoin, all holding good trout.

The maps on this website, extracts from the “Half Inch” Bartholomew map series of the mid twentieth century, have been reproduced with the permission of Collins Bartholomew. Viewers should note that these maps date back several decades, to the mid twentieth century in fact. While much of the man-made details such as roads and buildings will have changed over the years, the character of the hills, lochs and rivers, and the trout inhabiting them, will have remained very much the same as they have always been, in the more remote regions at any rate! This website shows detailed maps of the major fishing locations. In addition, however, I would recommend that anglers planning a Scottish fishing or walking trip should be sure to equip themselves with a compass, the appropriate local Ordnance Survey map and a working knowledge of how to use them. The most useful of the O.S. maps for the fisherman is the Landranger series, scale 1:50,000. For Invermoriston, see O.S. map number 26.
