what type of fishing is it?
hebridean fishing adventures is all about fly fishing
for salmon sea trout and brown trout on the islands of lewis
and Harris.

there is a huge variety of different fishing available on the island,
from the many and varied lochs, tiny trout streams, sea pools, estuaries, spate rivers and open coastline - there is something
in the hebrides for everyone. 

if theres one thing our islands are famous for  
then it is the unique loch fishing available,
not least the
 rare chance to catch
a salmon from a drifted boat. 


our motto here is 'fish to the conditions'
and thats what 
we advocate.
if the rains come and the salmon are running 

we hit the spate rivers.
if the rivers are low and no salmon are running  
an evening rise for trout might be on the cards or targeting 
sea trout in the estuary. if the winds blow and the wave is good
we drift the lochs pulling muddlers to attract salmon and sea trout.


this is what hebridean fishing is all about,
making the most of what we have to offer!
