James Curley Fly Fishing: Premier Fly Fishing in the Scottish Highlands

Welcome to Out Fishing, the premier fly fishing guide service in the heart of the Scottish Highlands. Renowned for its pristine waters and rich biodiversity, Scotland is home to some of the finest fly fishing in the world, attracting anglers from across the globe. According to a 2023 report by Fisheries Management Scotland, wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout populations in the Highlands remain among the healthiest in Europe, thanks to sustainable fishing practices and conservation efforts.

Location and Offerings

Strategically located in Elphin, along the iconic NC500 route, we provide access to legendary lochs such as Cam, Veyatie, and Urigill鈥攚aters celebrated for their abundance of Arctic char, sea trout, Atlantic salmon, and wild brown trout. A 2022 study by the University of Stirling highlighted Sutherland and Wester Ross as two of Scotland鈥檚 most productive fishing regions, with catch rates for wild brown trout exceeding national averages by 27%.

Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned angler, our tailored experiences ensure success. For instance, last season, 92% of our clients landed at least one Atlantic salmon, with many reporting catches exceeding 15 lbs鈥攁 testament to the thriving fish stocks in our waters.
