River Tay salmon fishing breaks in Perthshire
The Scottish Highlands and Perthshire offer some of the finest
salmon fishing and scenery in Scotland. Tay salmon fishing is
renowned the world over and Ballathie's riverside location is ideal
for a fishing holiday in the Scottish Highlands.
Ballathie is situated on the banks of the glorious River Tay
near the tributary rivers Isla, Ericht and Almond. Major lochs and
fisheries are also close by, providing good stillwater fishing
opportunities.
While the River Tay is world-famous for its Atlantic salmon, you
can also fish for brown trout, rainbow trout, pike, perch and
grayling in its waters. Fishing can be done from bank or boat, spin
or fly.
