Fishing / angling by Craggan Outdoors

Whether you’re a regular fisherman, or fancy trying your hand for the first time, then Craggan Fishery offers the best value and the most scenic setting in the Aviemore and Cairngorms area. Our purpose dug ponds cover an area of about 3 acres, and are set in the middle of our golf course, with fantastic views to the Cairngorms and the Cromdale hills.

With six ponds from which to choose, it is easy to find yourself a quiet corner where you can while away a few hours in peace and tranquility while trying to tempt one of our fish out of the water. We welcome all, from the complete beginner to the seasoned pro, on your own or in a group. Whilst primarily a fly fishery, we are happy for visitors to use whichever method they favour, be it spinning, float or of course fly. The ponds are stocked with rainbow trout at the beginning of April, and thereafter every few weeks through the season to ensure a that there are always plenty out there to try and catch. They tend to be partial to a diet of worms or sweetcorn, as well as flies. The catches are mostly around the 3/4 to 1lb mark, up to 2lb.

We are very much about being a more natural fishing experience, as opposed to a wide-open completely clear water fishery, & as is nature’s way, the reed & weeds will grow through the season.
