Fancy casting a line on the River Tay for summer salmon in August?

Ladies Fishing have organised two days salmon fishing on prime Tay beats. The Tay is the home of record fish including the largest ever rod caught salmon in Britain which was caught by Miss Georgina Ballantine in 1922, weighing 64lbs, and which remains the British Record. The event is open to all levels from beginners to experienced female anglers.

Monday 5th August – Robert White of Benchil will guide you on one of the most picturesque beats on the River Tay.
