Loch Clais nan Coinneal lies at low elevation on ground less than a kilometre from the sea in Highland. It is a very small loch of roughly 3.5 hectares, generally shallow with a mean depth around 4.5 metres, low in alkalinity and with a simple outline.

The loch holds trout that average about three to the pound. Bank fishing is easy, and the fish rise to most standard patterns of fly. Access is by a moor track coming in from the west for just over four kilometres, trending north-east to reach the water.
