Dumfries and Galloway is geographically blessed with everything, from a rugged coastline to miles of sandy beaches, acre upon acre of forestry with wildlife in abundance and if that wasn`t enough a wealth of salmon rivers and trout lochs. A fishermans dream. With so many rivers, lochs and reservoirs and a huge coastline, Dumfries & Galloway offers great fishing in relaxing surroundings. There are five major game fishing rivers in Dumfries & Galloway, the Border Esk, Annan, Nith, Cree and the Bladnoch, with a plethora of smaller rivers such as the Urr, Dee and the Water of Luce. These larger rivers compare more than favourable with better known waters further north and have long been famed for their prodigious runs of sea trout and greyback Solway salmon.
