The River Massan is a small Scottish river offering intimate fishing in a relatively unspoiled setting. This short 6.8km watercourse provides opportunities for brown trout and sea trout, with the character typical of Argyll's spate rivers that respond quickly to rainfall. The river's proximity to the coast adds the potential for migratory fish species during appropriate seasons.
Anglers should note the close season on River Massan: 15 March – 15 June (rivers, England & Wales). Club membership or day ticket access is required in addition to your EA rod licence on most stretches.
