The Salmon Rivers and Lochs of Scotland by W. L. Calderwood Pdf

Excerpt from The Salmon Rivers and Lochs of Scotland In preparing a second edition of this book, I have endeavoured to embody an account of such altered conditions as have come into being since 1909, when the book first appeared. It happens that, especially in the north of Scotland, many rivers have changed hands, for the War has had its influence upon even the peaceful sport of salmon fishing. Some of the changes have not materially altered matters or caused any modification in the fishings; and this is especially the case where tenants of long standing have now become proprietors. But in other instances an entirely new order of things has transpired. The rivers indeed flow on as before, but the anglers, aye and the ghillies one used to know upon the banks, the men who loved these scenes as all true Scotsmen love the land of their fathers, now lie in France or Gallipoli, or in even more distant graves. The records of catches in recent years have not always been easy to obtain, yet have been secured as far as possible. I desire here to thank all those who have so kindly assisted me in this way. Where records up to 1920 have not been available, former catches have been allowed to remain as indicative of angling value. At the same time I have embodied the various notes given me by those who, after reading the book in its earlier form, were good enough to add to or correct former records.

The Angler's Companion to the Rivers and Lochs of Scotland (Classic Reprint) by Thomas Tod Stoddart Pdf

Excerpt from The Angler's Companion to the Rivers and Lochs of Scotland But while such are the general features Of Tweed as an angling river, its individual superiority in this respect will be more clearly exemplified, when I limit my Oh servations to the particular portion of its course, which, extending five or six miles upwards, and as many in an opposite direction from Kelso, may be said to lie in the vicinity of that town. In this stretch of water are embraced, unquestionably, some of the finest salmon casts, as far as rod-fishing is concerned, in Great Britain. Spring, summer, autumn, and winter all furnish their fresh-run supply of the scaly tribe. The clean, firm set, eye-delighting fish of March and April is succeeded, during June and July, by the whitlings and early grilses these again, throughout the remainder of the season, are followed by others of older growth intermingled with breeders of every description, while to crown all, the grey-schule, cleaving undauntedly the December torrent, brings up the rear; nor is it until they have escaped the perils of the net and coble, and found their way through the arches of Coldstream-bridge, that these - the migratory fish of Tweed, - discover much appetite for the baits of the angler, or seem inclined to come, right venturesomely, towards his tinselled lures. Here it is, in the stretch of water alluded to, that they most freely exercise their capricious tastes, and here they are found in more abundance and perfection than in the upper portions Of the river.

The Angler's Guide to the Rivers Lochs of Scotland (Classic Reprint) by Robert Blakey Pdf

Excerpt from The Angler's Guide to the Rivers Lochs of Scotland From the Christian era to the discovery of printing, there were many works written on the piscatory art; most of them have, however, been lost, or are now mouldering in manuscript in the chief public libraries of France, Italy, Spain, Holland, and other northern countries of Europe. Since the establish ment of printing to the present day, there have not been fewer than from five to six hundred works written on the art, in the several kingdoms of the European Continent; more than one half of the number belonging to the English literature on the subject.

Observations Regarding the Salmon Fishery of Scotland (Classic Reprint) by UNKNOWN. AUTHOR Pdf

Excerpt from Observations Regarding the Salmon Fishery of Scotland By one of those coincidences which sometimes occur, the latter end of last century was likewise remarkable for a valuable discovery by the late George Dempster, Esq. Of Dunnichen; by means of which, the fishers were en abled to transmit the Salmon, preserved in ice, to distanb markets. I'vithout this discovery, although the benefit, of the improved mode of fishing would have been experis enced in the'mairkets, near the fishing stations; yet the Salmon could' not have been sent, in a fresh state, to any distantplace. But now, with its aid, the fishers being enabled to preserve the'salmon fresh as they camefrom the sea, the advantages were spread all over the na tion. And, in consequence, a great additional tonnage of shipping was constantly' employed, during the summer months, in c'arryirigthe Salmon, packed in ice', to the dif ferent markets in the kingdom. It seemed, in short, as if a new source of wealth had been opened up. And while proprietors found that their' fisheries were, 'in many instances, nearly as valuable as their lands, a considerable number of individuals found employment as fishermen, &c., and wealth was rapidly acquired by all concerned with the fisheries.

Remarks on the Salmon Fishings of Scotland (Classic Reprint) by Alexander Hector Pdf

Excerpt from Remarks on the Salmon Fishings of Scotland I have been connected with Salmon Fisheries all my lifetime, my experience in Scotland extending over a period of thirty years, during six of which I have also been an extensive tenant of Irish Salmon Fisheries. Several proprietors of valuable Salmon Fisheries in Scotland suggested to me the propriety of replying to the many statements recently put forth on behalf of the River Fishings. It is with some reluctance I have under taken to do so, as I feel that I am not so competent for the task as a more experienced writer would have been. I trust, how' ever, that my long practical experience as a Salmon Fisher will entitle my remarks to some weight; and, therefore, I have written the following pages in defence of the Sea Fishings, which it is contemplated by the lord-advocate's Bill now before Parlia ment entirely to destroy. While an Act of Parliament was passed so recently as 1842, conferring a right to the holders of'all sea-coast property in Ireland to carry on uninterruptedly What it is now contemplated to crush in Scotland; and while stake-nets have been in use there for 40 years, and bag-nets for 29 years - yet the Irish Fisheries are in a flourishing condition; and, in that period of time, if these fixed nets had produced the injurious effects attributed to them, it is to be presumed that they must have caused a decrease as well in Ireland as it is said they have done in Scotland. Since the following pages were written, I have observed an article in the Times, stating that 50 years ago Salmon were to be had at ]%d per lb. This is an old tradition, nearer 100 years than 50, when there was a scanty population and no means of transit, and before the English rivers had ceased to give a supply of Salmon. The Times should at the same time have informed the public that, at the period when Salmon was lsd per lb, beef was from 2d to 3d per lb, and all other commodities in propor tion; and that money bore a different relation to the price of labour and value of produce than it does now. The Times further states that Salmon have reached such a price as to be beyond the means of people in the middle walks of life. I may state, however, that, by the latest account of sales in London.

The Art of Angling by Thomas Tod Stoddart Pdf

Excerpt from The Art of Angling: As Practised in Scotland The very limited number, if not total want, of disserta tions upon the subject of Angling in Scotland, and the necessity for having something like an index to our lochs and streams, have induced us to throw together the fol lowing chapters. In character and produce, our waters differ very essentially from those of England; we have clear and rapid rivers - torrents black with mosses, or pel lucid as diamond - lakes large, and gleaming-tarns deep, still, and terrible, and of these, some are stored with prime, subtle trout, and others are frequented by the active salmon, the monarch of the flood.

Fly-Fishing Secrets of the Ancients by Paul Schullery Pdf

Modern fly-fishing is only the latest chapter in a two-millennia saga of technological creativity and passionate observation of the natural world. In Fly-Fishing Secrets of the Ancients, historian-naturalist Paul Schullery explores the earlier chapters in that saga and unearths a host of provocative theories, techniques, and insights that helped shape the modern fly-fisher. Schullery demonstrates that whether we're looking for a good fish story, a clearer understanding of why we fish the way we do, or even a way to improve our own sport, we ignore our elders at our peril. Fly-Fishing Secrets of the Ancients offers the beginning fly-fisher an unprecedented opportunity to come to terms with some of the sport's most fundamental theoretical and practical challenges. It offers the expert fly-fisher a chance to test current angling dogma--and his or her own pet theories--against that of the sport's greatest past masters. And it offers all readers a fresh, probing, and often-humorous take on the great endless fish story we perpetuate and enrich every time we cast a fly.

Wanderings by the Lochs and Streams of Assynt by J. Hicks Pdf

Excerpt from Wanderings by the Lochs and Streams of Assynt: And the North Highlands of ScotlandIt is frequently very difficult to arrive at an accurate knowledge of distance in the Highlands, many of the roads having no milestones, or marks of measurement: wherever I have been uncertain as to dis tance, I have purposely omitted to mention it.I have given portraits of those Flies, which, after repeated trial, I found to be the most killing in the Lochs of Assyut.I have endeavoured to give a faithful de scription of the lochs, omitting a detailed ao count of those which I have not personally fished, avoiding all exaggeration, by which I might have rendered the work more attractive, but less useful as a guide to those who may visit the same localities.If, from a residence of nearly three months in the wild district of Assyut, I have been enabled to afford the reader an idea of the lochs, and other objects of interest, which have hitherto been only mentioned in a very cursory manner, and, at the same time, if I have succeeded in giving to them that inte rest which is their due, I shall feel amply re paid for the preparation of the following pages.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ... quantities of sea trout and finnock hereabouts, and twenty-five to thirty pounds a day have often been taken. The Aikenway reach goes, on the right bank, from the end of Arndilly and the Long Pool down to just above Hollen Bush Pool; on the left bank it begins at the Green Burn Pool at the end of Rothes, and goes down to the Island. There are ten good casts on this water, Sandy Hills, Gean Trees and Sourdan being specially fine ones. Like Arndilly, this reach has not fished up to its former reputation for the last three years, but till the bad times began it used to yield about fifty fish up to the 1st of August, and from fifty to eighty more to the end of the season. Prior to 1895, days of ten fish to a rod, or eighteen to two rods, were not rare events in autumn, while one spring day Mr. W. S. Menzies had nineteen As Rothes ends on the left bank and Aikenway on the right, Lady Seafield again comes into possession of both banks of the Delfur water, which runs down for two miles; it is let to Colonel Ralph Vivian, and contains some very fine pools, notably the Hollen or Holly Bush, perhaps the finest pool to look at on the whole river, and certainly one of the best. The nature of this pool well shows the necessity for the Spey cast, for there are plenty of others with the same steep banks rising nearly sheer from the water side. In the illustration, the angler in the pool is on the open side of it and can use the overhead cast, which would be impossible if he was fishing from the opposite bank with the high cliff rising behind him. kelts and eight clean fish after twelve o'clock. A little below Hollen Bush is the Twa Stanes, in which pool was drowned a servant of the late Mr. Little Gilmour, who then owned this fishery; below this comes...
