A most attractive stretch of single bank fishing on the middle reaches of the River Don.
2 miles of single (right) bank fishing, 2 beats (fished by 4 rods in total) with 17 named pools/runs.
Tenure: Freehold
Situation: The Breda Fishings offer a perfect mix of shallow streamy water and deep holding pools which hold salmon for much of the year. Famous not just for its salmon and sea trout fishing, the Don boasts some of Scotland's finest wild brown trout fishing. Over the 2 miles of single (right) bank fishing rods fish in pairs, two rods fishing the upper beat in the morning, rotating at lunch time with the 2 rods fishing the lower beat. The water which is of modest width is easily fished by wading or off the bank in high water.
Savills negotiator: Liz Milne
Comprehensive records exist for the period 1993 - 2000 but thereafter they are incomplete. The three years 1997-1999 show a consistent catch of over 100 salmon with the catch being well spread over the pools and throughout the season.
Accommodation: The McLean's of Breda have owned this delightful stretch of the River Don for some 120 years. The decision to separate and sell off the fishings from the remainder of the estate reflects the present owner's passion to complete the restoration of the Breda mansion house.
Directions: From Aberdeen take the A944 to Alford and continue through the village. After 0.6 miles continue on the A980 signposted for Lumphanan for a further 0.8 miles and take a turning to the right signposted Auchentoul. Follow the minor public road to Auchentoul and beyond. Two fishing accesses lead off from the public road, the first takes fishermen past the now converted Home Farm Steading and down a beech avenue which joins the riverside access track just above the Laird's Pool. The other access leads off the private road beyond Auchentoul and takes fishermen down a new track to the upper beat just above the Flaskie Pool.
