Version 2.0 Release

Added at 14:45 on 31 January 2026

HiFly Fishing Version 2.0 is now live. It's a major upgrade separating the map into trout and salmon fishing versions, and splitting the content across the site. This provides a number of benefits, most significantly allowing us to offer separate TroutFisher and SalmonFisher memberships.

Sea trout fishing content is provided with both memberships and our GameFisher membership provides access to everything.

Separating the trout and salmon maps allows us to add new map layers and content. The TroutFisher map now includes a new layer (off by default), combining boat locations with directions pins that show vehicle access, parking spots and trailheads. 

The SalmonFisher map includes a new layer showing the factors affecting water storage and flow regulation on each salmon system, including dams, hydro-electric power stations, tailraces etc. There are also pins showing the location of waterfalls, including temperature barriers and impassable falls.

The HiFly Fishing maps now provides information on >1600 trout fisheries, >530 salmon beats & loch fisheries and >100 sea trout fisheries (>2200 fisheries in total). The website directories now have listings for >390 fisheries.
