WELCOME TO The River Tay
CARING FOR SCOTLAND’S LARGEST RIVER SINCE 1863
The River Tay is Scotland’s longest and mightiest river. Its huge catchment covers 10% of the country, straddling its centre from coast to coast. Its fame as a salmon river is legendary too. It is here that the British record rod caught salmon, a 64 pounder, was landed by Miss Georgina Ballantine in 1922.
The Tay DSFB is constituted and governed under the Salmon and Freshwater Fisheries (Consolidation) (Scotland) Act 2003
Here, you will find information on the River Tay, its fish and their environment. Where to go fishing, fishing reports including salmon and sea trout catches, river levels and much more.
