Gone fishing ...........

.....and that was some catch !!

The River Spey is the home of speycasting and one of Scotland's big four salmon rivers.

Anyone who has read any salmon fishing literature cannot fail to be impressed by some of the beat names on the Spey, including Wester Elchies, Delfur, Knockando, and Tulchan, not to mention Castle Grant and Arndilly. Every stretch is steeped in history and has seen thousands of anglers come and go.

The season opens on the 11th February and runs until 30th September. Anglers can expect to catch fish from the opening day onwards throughout the river, depending on the temperature and river heights.

If you're looking for the perfect base for a fishing holiday on the River Spey then look no further than the Steading holiday cottage.

This quality accommodation will help ensure that your holiday in the Scottish Highlands is a truly memorable experience.
