  • Troutquest Guide to Trout Fishing on the Nc500
    Version 1.2 anti-clockwise Roger Dowsett, TroutQuest www.troutquest.com Introduction If you are planning a North Coast 500 road trip and want to combine some fly fishing with sightseeing, you are in for a treat. The NC500 route passes over dozens of salmon rivers, and through some of the best wild brown trout fishing country in Europe. In general, the best trout fishing in the region will be found on lochs, as the feeding is generally richer there than in our rivers. Trout fishing on rivers is also less easy to find as most rivers are fished primarily for Atlantic salmon. Scope This guide is intended as an introduction to some of the main trout fishing areas that you may drive through or near, while touring on the NC500 route. For each of these areas, you will find links to further information, but please note, this is not a definitive list of all the trout fishing spots on the NC500. There is even more trout fishing available on the route than described here, particularly in the north and north-west, so if you see somewhere else ‘fishy’ on your trip, please enquire locally. Trout Fishing Areas on the North Coast 500 Route Page | 2 All Content ©TroutQuest 2017 Version 1.2 AC Licences, Permits & Methods The legal season for wild brown trout fishing in the UK runs from 15th March to 6th October, but most trout lochs and rivers in the Northern Highlands do not open until April, and in some cases the beginning of May. There is no close season for stocked rainbow trout fisheries which may be open earlier or later in the year.

The popularity of our annual Highland Archaeology Festival goes on from strength to strength. We aim to celebrate our shared history, heritage and archaeology and showcase the incredible heritage on our doorsteps as well as the importance of protecting this for future generations. The educational and economic benefits that this can bring to communities cannot be overstated. New research is being carried out daily by both local groups and universities as well as in advance of construction. Highland Council is committed to letting everyone have access to the results of this work, either through our Historic Environment Record (HER) website or through our programme of events for the festival. Our keynote talks this year provide a great illustration of the significance of Highland research to the wider, national picture. These lectures, held at the council chamber in Inverness, will cover the prehistoric period, the early medieval and the industrial archaeology of more recent times.

  • May 2019 Staffing Assynt Foundation (AF) Is Currently Going Through a Period of Staff Re-Structuring
    Assynt Foundation - News For Associate Members - May 2019 Staffing Assynt Foundation (AF) is currently going through a period of staff re-structuring. Rachael and Sam Hawkins have moved on from Glencanisp where they spent 2 years providing high quality hospitality in the Lodge. Jane Tulloch has stepped down as a director of Assynt Foundation and has taken up the position of Lodge Manager until the end of this season. Rebecca Macleod is the Administrator and Stuart Belshaw is the Estate Worker for the Foundation. Glencanisp Lodge The Lodge is being run as a Bed and Breakfast establishment for this summer along with special events such as the recent car rally. Conservation and Deer The deer - management on Glencanisp and Drumrunie for the coming season has been leased to a contractor. He and his team will also carry out the Habitat Impact Assessment which is part of the West Sutherland Deer Management Group South Sub-Group’s plan (available on their website). AF has applied to the Agri-Environment Climate Scheme for Moorland Management. This will cover 13,635 hectares (33,700 acres or about three-quarters of our land) and is for the conservation of peatland and restoration of blanket bog on both estates. The new native woodland establishment at Ledbeg continues where the local planting team are planting broadleaves on the site of a wood that was there in 1774. The south side of Loch Assynt is under consideration for new planting which will try to link all the bits of existing woods there. AF is grateful for help from Coigach and Assynt Living Landscape and The Woodland Trust with the moorland and woodland work.
