About Lyne Burn

The Lyne Burn is a small spate river in the Scottish Borders with a characteristic rocky, fast-flowing character typical of upland streams. It offers good opportunities for trout fishing, particularly after rainfall when water levels rise, though access can be limited by private land ownership. Most fishing requires prior permission from riparian landowners, and anglers should check local fishing rights before planning a visit.

Lyne Burn observes the standard close season: 15 March – 15 June (rivers, England & Wales). Always check local byelaws before your visit. A rod licence alone does not grant access — most stretches require club membership or a day ticket in addition.
