The River Lossie is a productive spate river in Moray, northeastern Scotland, known for its fast-flowing character and excellent salmon and sea trout runs during high water conditions. The river offers varied fishing through woodland and agricultural beats, with both pool and rapid fishing opportunities that suit a range of tackle and techniques. Access is generally through riparian landowner permits and several established fishing associations; spring and autumn are prime seasons when water levels rise.
River Lossie 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.
