Haystoun

beat overview

Haystoun fishings are located downstream from the town

of Peebles. The beat comprises approximately one mile

on the north bank and half a mile on the south bank.

There are seven named pools which fish best in medium

to low water.

The top of the beat is most easily accessed from the

municipal car park in Peebles. This is only a short walk

from the first three pools (Pailing End, Kingsmeadow and

Kerfield) which are fished from the north bank only. The

lower pools (Blackthroat, Stobs, Lower Stobs and

Wirebridge) can be fished from either bank, albeit casting

is easiest from the north bank with the exception of

Wirebridge Pool. Access to the lower part of the beat is

easiest from the A72 by a flight of steps from an adjacent

layby.

Haystoun is a beautiful beat, lying opposite

Kingsmeadows House and Estate and offers easily

accessible fishing for salmon and sea trout in the late

summer and autumn. Whilst the beat has historically

been productive, between 2008-2013, the water has not

been fished at all hence the lack of catch data.
