Welcome to our Website. The Gala Angling Association is proud to offer excellent fishing for Brown trout and Grayling in the very heart of the Scottish Borders. The association permit allows fishing on approximately 13 miles of the River Tweed (with the exclusion of several reserved areas) the River Ettrick and approximately 5 miles of the Gala Water. All the areas that are reserved are marked with notice boards and can be seen on our beat map.

Season and day permits are available locally for a modest cost and it is now possible to purchase a Grayling Permit online via the Fish Tweed website by clicking here.

We are indebted to the following estates who grant us permission to fish on Tweed: Ashiestiel, Yair, Fairnilee, Sunderland Hall, Faldonside, Abbotsford and Lowood. Also Meigle Farm, Rink Farm and Laggan Properties (Boleside).
