Andy,

There are plenty wee lochs around.  There is a small book published that you can pick up in Lochcarron stores for 3 or 4 pounds that lists some of the lochs.  There is a small loch near the road on the way to Bealach Na Ba - avoid it!  It was drained 2 years ago and has not yet recovered.  On the south side of Loch Carron there are a couple of lochs that are worth a try but the best advise is pick up this book and it will be a good starting point.  There is also plenty fishing on the Applecross area.

The sea fishing is also good around there.
