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.
The statutory close season on River Braan runs 15 March – 15 June (rivers, England & Wales). No coarse fishing is permitted during this period. Beyond the rod licence, fishing rights on River Braan are typically held by local angling clubs — check with the relevant club or day ticket provider before visiting.
