Update: Sunday 4th October 2026
Last couple of weeks of the season and the water remains at a high level Fish are being seen and caught above the bridge, as well as a couple of otters.
Don’t forget your Returns.
High tides as we enter the last few weeks of the Season – but hopefully not the high water levels we have been experiencing over the last few weeks.
The end of the Junior Fishing sessions was this weekend accompanied by an awful lot of rain!
It didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of those present though and they have promised to continue practising at home before we begin the 2027 season.

Water has been high for the last week as they seem to be draining the dams although there has been some rain on the West Coast water catchment for the Beauly system. It does make fishing our beats that bit more difficult.
4th catch of the Season? We understand that Frank may have caught a 6lb+ Salmon this week but this is unconfirmed as yet!
Third Salmon of the season. Check the Gallery 2026 pages for pictures of Mike’s catch
First Salmon of the season. Check the Gallery 2026 pages for pictures of Toby’s catch and click this link to his utube video.

The Beauly Angling Club provides members with affordable access to river and firth for Salmon and Sea Trout.
The club was founded during the Second World War by the late Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat, and became known as the Beauly Angling Club in the mid 1980s.
Our fishing on the River Beauly extends downstream from Lovat Bridge to Wester Lovat; this equates to around 7 miles of bank fishing with ten named pools.
The fishing on the inner half of the Beauly Firth is also included in club membership offering saltwater fly fishing, spinning and bait fishing predominately for Sea Trout. We have a number of exchange tickets set up with other Angling Clubs across Scotland.
We will have exchange tickets and also offer concessionary waters – please see the menu from the Members & Club Information pages after the Season begins
The club holds a number of friendly competitions for members held on different waters and regularly fields teams in inter-club competitions during the season, please see the Competitions page.
- In 2014 we launched a junior member development programme aimed at bringing the next generation of anglers into the sport. After the success of Junior Fishing Days in 2021 through 2024, the Club plan to hold more days in 2025 – check the website and Facebook for details and Yorky or Karl should be getting in contact as well to those Juniors who have joined this year.
Who can join? The club is open to potential members from all over the Highlands & Islands. We would particularly welcome applications from potential junior members.
