The River Endrick
Sea Trout Fishing on the River
Endrick
The main Loch Lomond
feeder, the River Endrick, rises in the Fintry hills then
flows for twenty miles westwards via Fintry, Balfron and
Killearn and over the "Pots" of Gartness before entering
Loch Lomond near Balmaha. At one time the Endrick was one of
the premier sea trout fisheries in Scotland but since the
mid eighties, the runs of migratory fish have declined
dramatically.

Sea Trout Fishing on the River Endrick
Much of the river can be fished by members of the
Loch Lomond Angling Improvement Association,,
which is open to all (subject to a maximum membership limit)
for the price of a yearly subscription. The Association is
working hard to reverse the decline in stocks and
applications for membership, which includes the fishing on
Loch Lomond, the River Leven and the River Fruin, should be
directed to tackle shops in the Glasgow area or via the
website.
