Spey – Badenoch Angling Association

The Association controls fishing on the River Spey from the mouth of the River Tromie to the Spey Dam at Laggan. There is also fishing on the A86 side of Loch Laggan and part of Loch Ericht.

Association waters are covered by a protection order issued under the freshwater and salmon fisheries act.

It is illegal to commence fishing without first obtaining a permit.
Fishing is mostly brown trout with the occasional salmon. There is also some pike fishing between Lochan Uvie and Laggan. Loch Laggan itself holds some specimen pike.
