Tweed Wild Salmon Co, run by Alex, is based in Melrose, UK. With over 900 years of history, Alex invites you to dive into the rich fishing heritage of the River Tweed. Here, you can join as a crew member for the day and experience traditional Net & Coble salmon fishing—skills that have stood the test of time.
Located in one of the UK’s oldest fisheries, Tweed Wild Salmon Co teaches you the history and practices of salmon fishing on the Tweed. The River Tweed is a Grade 1 river with healthy stocks of salmon and sea trout, and Alex's team is all about sustainability. They even delay their fishing season start to protect Spring salmon stocks. Each fish caught is tagged and recorded for traceability and quality assurance.
Fishing trips last around 5 hours and are available morning, afternoon, and evening throughout the season. They've recently launched a new website and were featured on BBC Country File, where they showcased their traditional net fishing methods.
