Argyll is an ideal destination for the keen angler, with a variety of fantastic fishing on offer, including sea fishing, river fishing and loch fishing, and beautiful, tranquil surroundings to enjoy this peaceful pastime.
Sea Fishing
If you're after the likes of mackerel, skate and sea trout, try your hand at sea fishing in Argyll. With its lengthy coastline, Argyll is perfect for sea angling (and a spot of wildlife watching). You can fish the tidal waters of Loch Etive, near Airdeny Chalets, until October.
River Fishing
The River Awe runs for three miles from Loch Awe into Loch Etive, and fishing is by fly only. Fish for salmon and sea trout until the end of the season in October.
Loch Fishing
Set amongst stunning scenery, Loch Awe is the longest freshwater loch in Scotland. Fish this popular loch for brown trout, Arctic char, perch, pike and ferox trout. As with the River Awe, the season runs until October.
If you've always wanted to learn to fish, you can take advantage of the free fly fishing starter course available to all guests at Airdeny. Willie Cameron, a local fly fisherman, will explain about the equipment, demonstrate some basic knots and help you try your hand at casting.
So why not unwind with a fishing holiday in Argyll? Enjoy a few days fishing and the beauty of the Argyll landscapes in an autumnal cloak.
