High quality salmon tackle included

If you are looking for the best salmon fishing near Edinburgh, then the River Tweed offers fly fishing throughout the river, for Atlantic Salmon. Alba can provide trusted and professional River Tweed fishing guides and everything else you need for the day.

Salmon can be caught throughout the season and the secret is to pick the right beats. Beats are sections of the river, under different ownership, and the trick is to select the best beat for conditions and time in the season, based on previous catch returns, water levels, and conditions.  The salmon fishing season on River Tweed commences 1st February and runs late into the season finishing on 30th November. The river rises in Tweeds Well and flows eastwards 97 miles through Peebles, Galashiels, Selkirk, Hawick, Kelso before flowing into the North Sea at Berwick upon Tweed.

The History of fishing on the Tweed

The River Tweed as well being famous for the origin of Tweed cloth is one of the best salmon fishing rivers in Scotland. Anglers have been fly fishing for the run of Atlantic salmon on the Tweed since the 17th century. The River Tweed is the second longest river in Scotland (97 miles) and produces more fish caught to the fly than any other river in the UK.

A typical salmon fishing day on the tweed

Your fly fishing guide will collect you from your hotel and transport you to the river. Days normally run from 08:00 to 18:00, however, we are flexible with timings. Transport to the river can be provided in a Luxury Land Rover or similar Vehicle.

We provide everything you need. Quality fishing tackle and specialist Scottish tied salmon flies. Orvis waterproof wading jackets, waders, and quality wading boots are supplied as are sunglasses.

Your fishing guide will be on your shoulder all day and is happy to give you casting tips, Spey casting tuition, advice on river craft, take photos and share stories. When you need solitude you can just enjoy the river
