A narrow loch which leads onto the larger Loch Bracadale, Harport is an ideal location for those anglers with kids or when weather conditions are adverse. Drive to Carbost and keep going straight along just past the Talisker Distillery you will find a large gravel carpark. From here you can feasibly fish anywhere to the left of the carpark from the shore.
Depth here is about 10m within 80yds of the shore. Using clipped down distance rigs will help in reaching the deeper water. Expect to catch Ray species, Dogfish, Dab, Flounder, Cod and Conger. Ground is fairly clean with little tiderun so grip leads are not necessary.
Spinning here will produce small Pollock and Mackerel during the summer. On a calm day this is an ideal location for sea fly fishing, Mackerel here are fairly close in as well as Pollock plus you don't need to get your line too deep.
There is a new pier that has just been built by the community of Carbost which you can fish from, but please be respectful and clean up after yourself. A great safe venue if you have young kids with you especially if they want to catch some mini species. Fishing flakes of mackerel or mussel on a size 10 hook down the sides will produce an array of Wrasse, Pollock, Blenny, Rockling and Sandeel.
A great place to visit when in Carbost is the Talisker Distillery. Brilliant tour which teaches you a lot about the history. Also gives you something to do if the fish aren't biting.
