Hi Bruce,

Permits are available from
Neil & Jaki Gallacher
Skelletar House
Strathdon
01975 651 386

Price is £20 per day as the Edinglassie & Candacraig ticket now includes the Tornashean fishings too.

Cheers

Ben

Neil and Jaki are extremely helpful and showed us places to fish/park and so on. The £20 is a flat rate so you can fish for Salmon too if you want.

We only had small fish, but you can certainly see that there are some lovely bits where bigger fish might hole up.

Basically you can now fish from the bridge in Strathdon all the way to Cock Bridge on one ticket...mostly both banks.
