Salmon Fishing on the River Dee

Do you want to fish for the majestic salmon against a stunning scenic backdrop? Glen Tanar has four beats on the upper stretch of the magnificent River Dee, which have been used by anglers since the 17th Century. All fishing on The Glen Tanar beats is fly based and can be booked by week, part week or day, subject to availability. Fishing with a ghillie is mandatory in spring (March - June), but optional during summer.

The four beats on the River Dee stretch downstream from:

  • Headinch & Cambus O'May (both banks)
  • Deecastle
  • Waterside & Ferrar (both banks)
  • Craigendinnie (ending just above Aboyne Bridge)

A condition of all salmon fishing is Catch and Release as recommended by the 'Dee Conservation Code' which is supported by the Dee District Salmon Fishery Board and the Dee Salmon Fishing Improvement Association.
