Fishing Perth

River Tay

Also called Perth Town water
(Mostly South Bank with 2 pools on the North Bank)

Trout and Coarse Fishing

Trout fishing on this beat is administered by Perth and Kinross Council. No permit is required.

Salmon and Sea Trout Fishing

Salmon and sea tout fishing on this beat is administered by Perth and Kinross Council. Permits offer exceptional value for money on some of the lowest beats on the river. It is big water and a good cast is often required. In the right water conditions fishing can be exceptional as salmon will hold here before running the river. Such large numbers can accumulate that fishing can sometimes be suspended.
