Just a reminder to those fishing and overnight camping that you require a three-day permit. A Day Permit runs from midnight to midnight on a single day and NOT any 24 hour period over two days. A three-day permit is a bargain at £20 and provides a degree of flexibility for campers. ...

Please remember to buy your permits online well BEFORE you travel. This gives time for details to be downloaded to the wardens' daily listings of valid permits, eliminating the need to approach anglers to make checks.
Remember that phone signals can be very patchy around the Lochside. If you are fishing without a permit and have no phone signal, the wardens will ask you to move off site until you have bought one, which is inconvenient for all concerned. ...

You may have already seen photos of the rather extreme littering problem across Scotland's wild places just now. Unfortunately, our forests are not immune.
That's why we - along with many other agencies across Scotland - are making a joint plea to all of our visitors to act responsibly and take litter home.
forestryandland.gov.scot/news-releases/multi-agency-plea-for-people-to-act-responsibly-and-take-their-litter-home
While many car parks and beauty spots are now open, waste collection services run by ourselves, other agencies, local councils or community groups may not yet be operational.
Simon Hodgson, our Chief Executive:
“This sort of anti-social behaviour not only creates a significant health hazard but also eats in to the limited resources that land managers have at their disposal.
“We would urge people to first of all think carefully about their travel plans, and secondly to behave like people who are proud to be able to call such a beautiful country home: don’t visit sites until they are open and take your litter home.”
This plea is backed by Zero Waste Scotland, Keep Scotland Beautiful, Scottish Water, Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, Scottish Natural Heritage and Cairngorms National Park.

LAIA have been working with ibookfishing to create an online fishing permit outlet. This should make buying and checking permits safer for all. Local residents living in postcodes PA30 through PA37 can now purchase their permits online at lochawe.net/permits/ . We will open this facility to a wider area as travel guidelines change. There are no permits for sale locally or on the bank from wardens at this time so you must buy online before you travel. ...

To better protect our wardens and the angling public from the potential spread of Covid-19, LAIA are moving to an online permit booking system. Currently, there are no fishing permits for sale, but we are aiming to have the new system up and running before travel restrictions are lifted.
We will update you on progress, but please do not travel to Loch Awe until restrictions are lifted and permits are made available. Only local season permit holders are able to fish until government advice changes. ...

In Response to Scottish Government's Route Map out of lockdown, from the 28th of May, Loch Awe will only be open for fishing to local season ticket holders until further government announcements are made.
Due to the influx of visitors at the start of the fishing season, Loch Awe has experienced the full effects of Covid-19 and local residents are not yet ready or happy to receive anglers from further afield so please respect the government guidelines and do not travel to Loch Awe from outside the immediate area. ...

A REMINDER TO ALL:-
Fisheries Management Scotland advise that it is for "individual proprietors to determine whether fishing can take place in accordance with the latest announcements"
As administrators of the Protection Order for Loch Awe and Associated Waters, LAIA made the decision to prohibit fishing during the current restrictions.
Likewise, Loch Awe Boats is CLOSED TO ALL during the lockdown period.
We understand that there are many people who consider solitary fishing to be compliant with social-distancing guidelines. However, accessing the loch involves non-essential travel and contrary to what many feel - fishing does not constitute exercise.
The Emergency Bill is now legally enforceable.
Please respect the rules during this difficult time and do not attempt to access the site, even if you are in possession of a gate fob.
Adhering to these rules will enable us to get back to normal as soon as possible. Thank you. ...

Following the latest government announcement that all non vital businesses must close, we regretfully announce that ALL our services cease with immediate effect.
We had hoped to permit berth holders to access the boatyard, but under the new enforceable rulings this is no longer possible.
Please be reassured that your boats are safe with us, but from now until further notice the boatyard is CLOSED TO ALL.
Berth holders currently on site or on the water are respectfully requested to return home tomorrow.
Your custom, friendship and our boatyard community is valued and much appreciated, but the current climate leaves us no option but to take this step.
We hope that this situation will soon resolve. In the meantime stay at home, stay safe and stay healthy. ...
