Loch Connan
Water managed by Portree Angling Association
Loch Connan lies in the low ground of Highland Scotland, roughly four kilometres from the coast and close to the B885 Portree to Struan road. It is a small loch of around 23 hectares, moderately deep for its size, with a shoreline of some irregularity — bays and points giving it a more varied outline than its modest perimeter might suggest. The fetch is short, the loch well sheltered, and the catchment dominated by peat, though the water itself is reasonably productive, with moderate alkalinity.
The loch may be fished from the bank or by boat. The terrain around it is rough and boggy in places, and the banks can be fragile underfoot. Wading calls for care, as the bed is uneven.
Access is from the B885, where a car can be left near grid reference NG394425. From there, a faint track leads northwest over boggy ground to the loch, the route covering a little over a kilometre as it works across open moorland to the water's edge.
