About River Dulnain

The River Dulnain is a scenic Highland spate river in Morayshire, characterized by fast-flowing rocky pools and turbulent runs that offer exciting salmon and sea trout fishing during high water conditions. The river is best fished after heavy rainfall when water levels rise, providing excellent sport for experienced anglers willing to tackle challenging conditions. Access is generally good along much of the river, though permits from local fishery owners or the Spey Fishery Board are required; spring and autumn are prime seasons for migratory fish.

River Dulnain observes the standard close season: 15 March – 15 June (rivers, England & Wales). Always check local byelaws before your visit. No rod licence is needed in Scotland, but permission or a permit from the estate, club or riparian owner is usually required.
