LOCATION
The beat is situated two miles downstream from Pitlochry Dam, close to the A9 trunk road which provides a fast link to Perth, 24 miles to the south. Pitlochry is a small town set amidst spectacular scenery, offering a wide range of recreational facilities including the famous Festival Theatre situated on the right bank of the Tummel and adjacent to the fish ladder.
The Beat
The beat consists of seven named pools in which wading is generally good. The banks are largely open and unobstructed but anglers will require chest waders to cover the water effectively at normal water heights. There are fishing huts on each side of the river and regular tenents may use both huts by prior arrangement
As sediment in the water tends to settle in the dam upstream, it is very unusual for the beat to be unfishable in high water.
