Fishing Lakes in Castle Douglas

Castle Douglas sits at the centre of a stretch of Galloway water, and the seven venues listed here take in some sizeable lochs alongside a river. Carlingwark Loch and Clatteringshaws Loch offer the still-water option close to town, while Loch Ken and Loch Doon (Galloway Shore) extend the choice further out into the surrounding countryside. For something different, the Water of Fleet brings a river into the mix rather than another expanse of loch.

Barscobe Loch rounds out the still-water side of things, giving anglers based in Castle Douglas a fair spread of settings without having to travel far. Those wanting more options nearby could look to Lockerbie, which has four listings of its own, though the fishing on offer around Castle Douglas already covers both loch and river fishing within a short distance of the town.
