Fishing

Trout fishing is available at Glencoe Hospital Lochan. Permits must be obtained and are available from the Post Office in the village street.

There are many opportunities for fishing in the area, although in some areas there are restrictions or permits required.

The Rod & Gun Shop in Fort William's High Street sell a useful guide to fishing in the area, and list a fair bit of information on fishing throughout Lochaber on their web site..

Fishing tackle is available in Ballachulish. The local sea lochs are freely accessible and mackerel, sea trout and pollack are commonly caught from the shore.

You can try your hand at fly fishing at the stocked trout ponds at Torlundy Farm, just outside of Fort William. The views of Ben Nevis can be spectacular!
