Coldstream is situated on the River Tweed in the Scottish Borders.
“Scotland’s fresh waters – rivers and lochs – are among some of the most beautiful, unspoiled features of Britain today. Scotland has an amazing 30,000 lochs and smaller ‘lochans’ and 35,000 km of rivers.
This is equivalent to 95% of the entire UK’s water resources, and covers 2% of the landmass. It is, however, the diversity of these waters as much as the raw statistics that impresses.” (Fisheries Research Services)
Coldstream & District Angling Association is concerned primarily with Fly Fishing only, for Brown Trout and Grayling.
There are 18 beats in total, which are between Birgham and Milne Graden. This permits Coldstream & District Angling Association the ability to provide fly fishing for 64 rods along the 26 miles of the North and South banks combined on the River Tweed.
And to ensure that our members and visitors continue to enjoy this beautiful river the Association is very proactive in assisting the Tweed Trout & Grayling Initiative with their conservation efforts.
Although you don’t need a rod license to fish in Scotland you do need a permit to fish. Permits can be obtained in several ways. See our become a member section.
