• Guidance for All Water Users
• This Guidance is intended to assist all water users to share inland water in Scotland in such a way that the interests of all are considered and respected.
• The Guidance, developed through a process of consultation and consensus building, aims to demonstrate how the different interests of water users can be responsibly, proactively and positively integrated. It is hoped that commercial and educational guides, coaches and instructors, riparian owners, fishing proprietors or their agents, fishing associations, ghillies etc, who regularly use inland water (lochs, rivers, canals and reservoirs) with clients, will brief them on the good practice guidelines in this document.
• It is also hoped that clubs and individuals will follow this guidance.

• Health and Safety
• It is a sad fact that in most years a few people suffer a serious, occasionally fatal accident whilst fishing. With sufficient care, many could be avoided.
• The best safety advice is to take your time, be careful, and use common sense. A measured, well prepared approach will not only keep you and others free from injury, it will help you catch more fish.
