Points To Note

All bookings must be secured by a 20% deposit, which is non refundable unless the activity is cancelled by Skye Ghillie before it is due to take place. This deposit will not include any part of the permit cost.

Permits must be obtained from the fishery before taking to the water. This can be arranged through Skye Ghillie. It is criminal offence to fish for salmon and sea trout without one. It is also a civil offence to fish for brown trout without permission.

Depending on the time of year and the waters being fished, catch and release may be in operation or a bag limit imposed.

With the exception of guide dogs, no dogs are allowed on the beats. Many of the rivers and lochs are on crofting or common grazing land.

In Scotland it is illegal to fish for salmon and sea trout on a Sunday. Although it is legal to fish for brown trout on a Sunday, this is not something that is encouraged in the Western Isles. Mitchell regrets, but he will not take anyone out fishing on a Sunday.

Skye Ghillie would like to point out that he does not take any commition on the permit sales.

Skye Ghillie may, for safety reasons, postpone, curtail or cancel fishing or walking activities at any time.

Any damages to Skye Ghillie property will incur a charge.

Skye Ghillie tariffs do not include personal insurance.
