Loch Scourst is the first major loch you drive past on the Meavaig track to Voshimid. It has a large boathouse, and the loch is easily accessible, with the track running beneath its banks. It is a good salmon and sea trout loch, especially known for its large sea trout. It is smaller than Voshimid, and for this reason, it has only one boat. It can be fished in all conditions, including a gale from the bank. The North Shore fishes well from the bank.
