New S&TC Scotland film on the collapse of sea trout in Loch Maree

This important new film explains the catastrophic collapse of sea trout stocks in Loch Maree, once one of the world’s truly great wild fisheries, following the arrival of salmon farming in the adjacent sea loch. It’s a disastrous tale of a vibrant fishery, supporting a hotel and twenty seasonal ghillies, that, within a very few years, virtually disappeared. The 7‑minute film, and the story of S&TC Scotland’s campaign in Holyrood, can be viewed here:
