Fishing near Edinburgh, Scotland

Edinburgh sits at the heart of one of Scotland's most varied freshwater fishing regions. The city is ringed by rivers, burns and reservoirs, from the Water of Leith running through the city itself to the world-renowned River Tweed roughly an hour to the south. Stillwater trout fishing on the Pentland Hills lochs and reservoirs is accessible within a short drive, while the Tweed system draws anglers from across Europe for its salmon, sea trout, wild brown trout and grayling.
