Rules for this mark
Minimum sizes, bass rules and local byelaws for this coast come from Marine Directorate (Scottish Government). They're set out in full, with the date we checked them, on the region page.
Piers, harbours and some beaches have their own rules and permits, and access changes. Check with the owner or harbour office before your first visit.
Stay safe on this coast
- Tides. Know the time of high water and your way off before you go out. Marks that fish around high water or on the flood can cut you off.
- Cut-offs. Sandbanks, causeways and headlands flood from behind. After storms, re-walk even a familiar beach in daylight.
- Rock. Watch the sea for 10 minutes before you go down: big waves come in sets. Wet weed is like ice. Never fish rock alone in the dark.
- Lifejacket. Wear a lifejacket (PFD) on rocks, piers and walls, with the crotch strap fastened.
- Emergency. Call 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard. Never go in after someone: call, and throw something that floats.
