Loch Fyne is a sea loch on the west coast of Argyll and Bute, Scotland. It extends 40 miles inland from the Sound of Bute, making it the longest of the sea lochs. Loch Fyne has a reputation for its oyster fishery, and as a consequence the loch has given its name to the locally owned Loch Fyne Oysters and to the associated Loch Fyne Restaurants. It is also notable for its herring fishing industry, and hence the famous Loch Fyne Kipper, originally caught using the drift net method. In the mid 19th century, Loch Fyne was the centre of the battle between the traditional drift net fishermen and the new trawl net fishermen who sprang up around Tarbert and Campbeltown in 1833.
