About

Loch Ghlinne is predominantly a sea trout water, but they can be large! There is one boat on this loch. It is a expansive body of water. Therefore, the fish are fairly well dispersed. However, there are three main areas where fish are caught: at the mouth and head of the loch and around the island. To reach the loch, travel by car to Loch Leosaid, then walk 3 miles on a well-defined footpath with a steep descent to Ghlinne. Good walking and wonderful views.
