The River Tay is Scotland's largest salmon river which is a renowned big fish river. Benefitting from a 'unique' huge loch-fed headwater catchment the Tay is the most reliable Scottish river for consistently stable & fishable water conditions.

The Tay also has an extensive salmon fishing season from the 15th of January through to the 15th of October with the 2 best fishing periods being March, April & May during the Spring and September & October during the Autumn.

Our guided River Tay salmon fishing service is inclusive of permits (licenses), professional guide, tactical fine tuning and any required salmon fishing equipment.

Appropriate seasonal salmon fly patterns are provided by ourselves to match the prevailing water & temperature conditions.
