Sannox Burn is a small spate river located on the Isle of Arran, characterized by fast-flowing waters through rocky terrain with good gradient. The burn offers an intimate fishing experience in a scenic upland setting, best fished during or shortly after rainfall when water levels rise. Despite its modest length, it provides rewarding opportunities for aggressive trout that respond well to small wet flies and spinners.
