Fishing Loch
Earn
The beautiful Loch
Earn is quite a large loch, aprocximately 7 miles long, and runs
from Lochearnhead in the west to St Fillans in the East. There is
both Salmon and trout fishing from loch side or by boat. The main
road runs along the North side and there is a B road which runs
along the more popular side for fishing which is the south side.
There are often tents on the beaches here. It is unfortunate that
there is often a lot of refuse left by fishermen and women along
this loch side.
Loch Earn
has a reputation of producing very large brown trout, often thought
to be the place to catch the biggest in Scotland. This is due to the
restocking policies which have been followed for many years. The
biggest to date was caught in 2006 and weighed in at a staggering
26lbs and 10oz.
Accommodation is
available at Lochearnhead
and at St Fillans,
both on Loch Earn.
