We highly recommend fishing with Michael. We caught not one, not two, but three monster (21 inch) beautiful rainbow trout. Our son, age 9, who loves fishing, was thrilled. The trip had something for everyone in the family: great fishing, fantastic views and an authentic experience of the Scottish countryside, only minutes from Edinburgh. We look forward to fishing with Michael again sometime when we are back in Scotland.

Went to Scotland for a little over 2 weeks for class. Met Mik close to the end of my trip when I went fishing with him and his friends and had such a great/ fun time I ended up going out with the hawks the following day with one of my classmates. Such a great experience for a visitor cuz Mik shows you parts of Scotland you wouldn't otherwise see. Let alone watch a hawk hunt!!! Top 3 coolest experiences of my life.

I first heard about Edinburgh Falconry and Fishing approximately one month before traveling to Scotland. I contacted Mik in order to request information and eventually book a day of fishing with him. Mik went so far beyond any reasonable expectation I had of a guide though, he could not have been more helpful. He provided me with meaningful, local advice and seemed more than happy to help me. Even before our day of fishing, Mik had proven himself to me. By the time I finally arrived in Scotland, I was eager to hit the water. Mik had us all rigged up and ready to go by the time we reached our fishing destination. In short, Mik put us on some beautiful fish on a day when few others on the river were having any measure of success. We caught a healthy selection of native Brown trout on the fly. All of which were spunky, acrobatic and above all else, gorgeous. Mik is a personable and knowledgeable guide who I look forward to doing more business with in the future.
