The Lussa River is a small coastal stream on the Isle of Islay in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, characterized by clear, peaty water flowing through moorland and agricultural land. This intimate spate river offers exciting opportunities for sea trout and brown trout fishing, particularly during autumn and winter months when water levels rise. Access is generally good for riparian walks, though permits from local landowners or fishing associations are typically required before fishing.
The statutory close season on Lussa River runs 15 March – 15 June (rivers, England & Wales). No coarse fishing is permitted during this period. Beyond the rod licence, fishing rights on Lussa River are typically held by local angling clubs — check with the relevant club or day ticket provider before visiting.
