About Oxnam Water

The Oxnam Water is a tributary of the River Teviot in the Scottish Borders, offering a mix of pocket-sized pools and gentle runs typical of upland border streams. This is primarily a trout and grayling fishery with good fly-fishing potential, particularly in the lower sections where the water slows and deepens. Access is generally available through local landowner permissions and fishing permits from the Teviot and Ale Fishery Association.

Anglers should note the close season on Oxnam Water: 15 March – 15 June (rivers, England & Wales). Access on most stretches is via club membership, an estate beat or a local permit — Scotland has no general rod-licence requirement.
