Description
Presented by Lord Forbes, Forbes Estate Office, Keig, ALFORD, Aberdeenshire, AB33 8BL.
Website: www.castle-forbes.com
One day’s fishing for two rods on the Castle Forbes Beat of the River Don which flows through some of the most picturesque landscape on its entire length.
Good Beat management, of sensible rod numbers per Beat, has produced an average catch over the last five seasons of 114 and gives anglers every opportunity of an enjoyable day. Runs of sea-trout also occur and the Don has always been regarded as one of Scotland’s premier brown trout rivers. The fishing extends to some two miles of double bank upstream, and 1.5 miles double bank downstream of Keig Bridge, with a further 1 mile of single (left) bank only downstream below the double bank stretch.
To be taken by mutual agreement with the donor.
Accommodation is not included but is available at Castle Forbes at the special rate for fishermen. For more information see the Castle Forbes website.
