Salmon, Trout & Saltwater Fishing trips in Scotland since 2004

Firstly, Alba Game Fishing provides luxury fishing trips in Scotland, bespoke touring experiences, since 2004. Our vacations include fly fishing for salmon, trout, pike, sea trout, and saltwater species. Also, our team of 20 professional fishing guides include qualified SGAIC/ AAPGAI fly casting instructors. In addition, our pro-guides are located throughout Scotland, covering all regions.

There are approximately 30,000 trout lochs in Scotland, and a wide variety of fish species in Scotland. Scotland has also some of the world’s most iconic salmon rivers, such as the River Tweed, River Tay, River Spey and River Dee. These rivers in Scotland are steeped in myth and mystery, and for thousands of years, the salmon has been an ancient symbol of Scotland.

In addition to the Big 4 rivers and trout lochs of Scotland, there are thousands of smaller spate rivers throughout Scotland. Naturally, we fish the best of them. Meanwhile, let’s not forget the Highland rivers, where you can cast for salmon, amongst epic scenery.

Planning a tour in Scotland mixing fishing and touring? We can help

Likewise, your time is precious and hard earned. Therefore, our collective experience and knowledge of Scotland, can help plan and deliver a memorable trip. Our best selling “Hidden Gem” tours, combines fishing and touring and are ideal for couples.

Furthermore, if you need fishing accommodation, we have a carefully selected portfolio of partners.

In summary, for 23 years we have been delivering unique experiences in some truly unforgettable Scottish locations. In 2025, we became an elite Sage Experiences Outfitter. This means you can enjoy premium Sage fly rods, Sage reels and Rio Fly lines.

Tricky blustery conditions but good for teaching people the correct casts to use according to wind direction and where to place the anchor to keep everyone safe. Many thanks to @dun_aluinn for sending these lovely guests to us and trusting us to look after them. Huge thank you also to our guides. @scottrutherford72 Sam and Andy

For all our tackle geeks out there, and anybody wh For all our tackle geeks out there, and anybody who’s interested in the history of Sage Fly Fishing. 
I have a limited edition, Sage 10th Anniversary Trout Rod and Billy Pate reel both in hand made presentation cases, hand crafted by Holland Sport Leather cases. These were both produced in 1990. It’s hard to believe that it is already 35 years ago.  Both the rod and the reel are completely mint new condition and have never been fished. The serial number is #56 and they were only 300 ever made.  I don’t think there is another set like this in completely new condition anywhere in the world…or is there? 
I’ll post the images of the rod on a separate post.  The Billy Pate reel still has the original 200 yards of 15 pound backing and an “ultra” WF7 floating line, never used. The reel features an anti-reverse mechanism. 
What do you think of this? Have you ever seen one of these outfits youself?

Alba Game Fishing was formed in 2004 and pioneered the “luxury fishing trip”.

Since 2004, we have offered guided fishing in Scotland, and mixed fishing and touring vacations. Also we live by the philosophy of continuous improvement. Our team of guides are constantly looking to keep on top of the best fishing destinations, techniques and experiences throughout Scotland.

In addition, we invest regularly in new fishing tackle, waders, boots and other gear to make your trip more enjoyable and safe. Reassuringly we work with key partners, like Patagonia, Sage (Far Bank), Orvis, Redington and Rio Fly lines.

Safe fishing trips in Scotland

During Covid -19, we used the extra time to train staff through the World Health Organisation on Covid Infection and prevention.

All our staff have been vaccinated regularly and our policy is that if any staff member is sick, for any reason, we will keep them off work and arrange an alternative guide.
