Exclusive Fly Fishing Near St Andrews

Wormit Trout Fishery

A six-acre stillwater in North Fife, just a short drive from St Andrews and Dundee. Wormit offers calm, scenic fly fishing with controlled rod numbers, clear water and space to enjoy the day properly. Book a day rod if you are an experienced angler with your own tackle, or choose a hosted fly fishing experience if you are new to the sport, visiting Scotland or looking for something memorable outdoors.

Quality Trout Fishing in Scotland

A Better Kind of Trout Fishery

Set in the peaceful countryside of North Fife, Wormit Trout Fishery offers a more considered way to enjoy fly fishing. The water is calm, scenic and carefully managed, with rod numbers kept low so anglers have space to move, cast and settle into the day.

Experienced anglers can book day rods and fish at their own pace from dawn to dusk. Beginners, visitors, couples, families and groups can book a hosted fly fishing experience with tackle, tuition and guidance included.

Why Wormit Feels Different

More Space, Better Fishing

Wormit is managed around space, calm water and a better day on the bank. Keeping rod numbers low means less pressure, more room to cast and a more relaxed experience from first light through to evening rise.

That approach gives anglers:

  • Room to Fish Properly – Space to move, cast and work the water without feeling boxed in.
  • Clear, Carefully Managed Water – A six-acre stillwater with strong natural feeding patterns and hard-fighting trout.
  • A Calmer Day Outdoors – Less crowding, less noise and more of the reason people go fishing in the first place.
  • Options for Every Level – Day rods for experienced anglers, hosted experiences for beginners and private use for groups and events.

Full-day rods are best booked in advance. The Late Afternoon & Evening Rod is £25. Current session time is 3.00pm–8.00pm. You are welcome to arrive beforehand and get set up in the car park, but fishing starts at 3.00pm and not before. As daylight shortens, the session will move earlier and the time shown in the booking calendar is the time that applies.

Where do I start? The setting is lovely. Such a beautiful spot. Prior to arrival I chatted with Greig. Very clear and helpful communication. We had an "experience" day with a guide, Craig, and he was nothing short of spectacular. I was with my wife and two young sons. Craig was clear, thoughtful and fun. Craig made it a wonderful family experience not to be forgotten. Thanks to the whole team!

Owner's reply
Much Appreciated Allen, Craig really enjoyed guiding and has even offered your son some coaching. We look forward to seeing you all again very soon. Tight lines!! :)

Brilliant place to fish, staff are helpful and there's loads of info on what fly that's been catching that week on Facebook. Water is very clear and the fish put up a great fight. Would highly recommend

Our Club have fished at Wormit twice this season so far. What a beautifully maintained fishery Wormit is with clear banks with easy access to all areas. The fishing was excellent and we caught some cracking hard fighting Rainbow Trout between 3 to 5lbs. Looking forward to our next visit.

Owner's reply
Dave, much appreciated. Glad to have your club there. See you next time for more of the same :)

Raemoir Fishing Club day out at Wormit Fishings - What a fantastic venue!! beautiful and well maintained banks and grounds. Greig was a pleasure to meet and couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. The fishing was off the scale and every one of us caught fish that were hard fighting slabs. A day to remember and repeat 10/10 Thanks for a great day out🎣😎.

Owner's reply
Thanks for the review Simon, was a pleasure hosting you all. See you again next time!!
