Dumfries and Galloway Angling Association is a fishing club based in Dumfries, South West Scotland. Our beat includes numerous holding pools and access to the water is good. We welcome visitors and new members. 

 

There are many great fishing locations throughout Dumfries and Galloway and we control a variety of productive waters on the River Nith and its major tributary the River Cairn.  Given the correct water levels, there are few Scottish rivers that can match the quality of Salmon, Sea Trout, and Brown Trout fishing to be had on the River Nith.

 

DGAA welcomes new members and associate members.

 

If you would like to join our club you can find out more about the memberships available below and fill out a membership application here.

Only 20 miles north of Carlisle - UAAA for Salmon, Sea Trout, specimen Grayling and seriously BIG wild Brown Trout

Upper Annandale Angling Association has 8 miles of this 35-mile river.

There is plenty of fishing available. We have one 4-mile beat north of Lockerbie (Applegarth Beat) and another 4-mile beat south of Moffat (Upper Beat), mostly both banks.

Brown Trout are ALWAYS catch and release on our water and yes they are that big and that wild. WILD Brownies from 4 to 8 pounds are caught every year on a dry fly and nymph, mostly in April, May, and June and on both beats.

By May there are Sea Trout available and in the last couple of years, we've had Summer salmon to 20 pounds starting in June and July, even though Annan is typically considered a "back end" river with the main Salmon runs in September, October, and November.
