The River Braan is a clear, fast-flowing tributary of the River Tay in Perthshire, Scotland, known for its excellent salmon and sea trout runs, particularly during autumn and winter months. The river offers a mix of pools and rapids with good accessibility along much of its length, though much of the fishing is controlled by local estates and beats requiring permits or day tickets. This is a demanding river for anglers, best suited to those with experience in spate conditions and the technical skills needed for salmon and trout work.

Fishing rights on River Braan are typically held by the riparian owner or a local angling association — check before visiting, as no rod licence is required in Scotland.
