Hi all,
I'm off to Scotland to do a tour and hopefully a lot of fly fishing for trout - but the permission angle is confusing me (not hard, admittedly!).
I understand that there is no licence for the lochs and that you need to seek permission from the landowner / club (unless it is protected, in which case it should have signs saying so).
However, I'm slightly confused as to how you identify the land owner to get permission in remote areas. If there's a hotel or suchlike I'll happily just ask them but on a small remote loch is there any protocol I should follow? Or are there honesty boxes set up?
Thanks in advance for replies
