| The River Doon is the best known
River in Ayrshire, and flows from its spawning burns above
Dalmellington and also from Loch Doon which gives compensation
flow when the river is low.
This has the effect of making our beats fishable all season.
The average weight of Salmon caught is about 8Ibs, although
odd fish of over 20Ibs are caught most years. Grilse average
5Ibs.
The Doon is the most prolific of the Ayrshire rivers and
our beat is the most prolific averaging over 350 salmon
a season. As our season is only 4 months from July to October,
it stands up to most of the top beats in Scotland.
