Our Team

Duncan
Duncan has built up the reputation of Fishinguide as one of Scotland's best providers of guided fishing trips, as attested to by the many 5 star reviews on TripAdvisor. If ever Duncan has time where he's not guiding or looking after his two infant sons, he's out fishing, or on a fishing holiday.

Neil
Holds SGAIC single-handed flycasting instructor qualification.

Tom B
He'll put you on pike or help you to catch trout, spurdog, mackerel, pollack or just about anything else you fancy. All this while regaling you with stories of adventures had.

Jock
When it comes to catching trout, especially in the lochs around Edinburgh which Jock knows intimately, Jock is Derek's only match. Jock is also a long standing member of the Scottish international fly fishing team, and for good reason!

Derek
During the season I worked there they had a league running where anglers fished one day every week from March to September. By July Derek was so far ahead he was uncatchable – he out-fished everyone every time. The man has some kind of odd fishy magic in him, as the Scottish team has noticed.

Richard
After 40+ years of fishing his appetite to continue to learn about angling of all forms is demonstrated by his fishing book collection which is so comprehensive it has (to his wife's chagrin) taken over their house. It was Richard's passion for fishing that spread to his brother Duncan and hooked him.

Dougie
Dougie offers his guests the kind of insights into the lives of salmon and trout that can turn blanks into bonanzas. He's one of life's good guys, a gentleman through and through. We're confident you'll have a great time in Dougie's company.

Jim
When you fish with Jim you know you're in the presence of a thoroughly good man and a massively understated expert in what he does. Never boastful, always gracious and always helpful, Jim is nothing short of a legend.

Hugh
The consummate professional and always a gent. Everyone who is guided by Hugh writes to tell us what a great time they had. We at Fishinguide appreciate Hugh's talented guiding efforts greatly.

Steve
Holds SGAIC single- and double-handed flycasting instructor qualifications.

Alan
On a normal weekend he might spend 14 hours trolling for ferox and the next day hike into the hills to fly fish for little loch browns. Alan relates to people extremely well and is a fantastic guide.

Phil
Phil will take you saltwater fishing off the coast of Argyll. He will take you to marks where you can catch pollack, wrasse, coal fish, mackerel and more. You're likely to see seals and lots of bird-life, there's also a chance of seeing dolphins and, if you're very lucky, basking sharks.

Scott
Scott also happens to know excellent places that he can take you to to connect with salmon. In my opinion Scott's laid back and considered approach is that of a talented natural angler. Even if that's all you take from your day with him, you'll have improved.

Fin
If you've thought about fishing the River Tweed for salmon, trout or grayling there is no-one better to help you. Taking you hiking to a remote loch to catch wild browns is also his dominion. Fin is a lover of Scotland and its fishing, and it's infectious. Fishinguide is honoured to have Fin in the team.

Ron
Though Ron has retired he will on occasion guide Fishinguide guests. As a keen explorer of the wilds himself he runs our hiking and fishing trips out of Edinburgh. My bet is you'll enjoy Ron's company and quiet charm.
