THE NORTH & NORTH-WESTERN DIVISION. Embracing The Counties Of Dumbakton, Stirling, Abqtle, Perth, Aberdeen, Banff, Nairn, Inverness, Ross, Sutherland, And Caithness. We are now about to enter upon our third great angling route, or, we ought rather to say, an entire series of routes, which are by far the most varied, and, to many minds, will prove the most interesting of any we have yet treated of. The vast range of waters we are now about to describe, are fitted to inspire high hopes, and heart-stirring adventures; and to those who visit, for the first time, the northern parts of the kingdom, a new seme is communicated. Never will the young angler forget the lively sensations experienced on the first glimpse of Highland scenery. The sight is unique; the feelings and emotions of delight carve out new channels for themselves; and he wonders that the refreshing and invigorating novelty should have been so long hidden from his eyes. His soul is elated beyond measure, when he scans, through the bright crimson of a setting sun, the lofty and rugged peaks of Argyleshire; and as he wanders through the narrow and rocky glens, he feels a pleasure as pure, lively, ennobling, and spiritual, as any which mortal man, in this mundane state of existence, is permitted to experience. We beg to offer a word or two by way of explanation. As we have not undertaken to write an ordinary guide book of roads and distances, we must be excused from dwelling upon matters which are to be found in every general directory, or post-office hand-book. Our task is to point out the chief rivers and lakes which abound with salmon and trout, and which lie in the northern section of the Island. The fishing localities are so numerous here that we can do little more, ..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Angler's Guide to the Rivers Lochs of Scotland Angling is, unquestionably, one of the most ancient arts or amusements of which we have any record. It is mentioned in the books of the Old Testament. It is engraved on Egyptian remains of three thousand years old; and, in the monuments from Nineveh, recently deposited in the British Museum, we have a representation, almost as large as life, of a man angling, with u rod and line, and with a fishing-creel on his shoulders, precisely similar in shape to those we use in Great Britain at the present day. The art is mentioned by Herodotus, one of the earliest Greek historians; and Theocritus, a Grecian angler, who flourished B.C. 270, treats of his favourite sport in a poem of considerable length. The Romans fished with net and hook, as we do at present; and a caricature of angling has been found among the remains of the City of Herculanæum.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PREFACE. THE Author of this very practical treatise on Scotch Loch - Fishing desires clearly that it may be of use to all who had it. He does not pretend to have written anything new, but to have attempted to put what he has to say in as readable a form as possible. Everything in the way of the history and habits of fish has been studiously avoided, and technicalities have been used as sparingly as possible. The writing of this book has afforded him pleasure in his leisure moments, and that pleasure would be much increased if he knew that the perusal of it would create any bond of sympathy between himself and the angling community in general. This section is interleaved with blank shects for the readers notes. The Author need hardly say that any suggestions addressed to the case of the publishers, will meet with consideration in a future edition. We do not pretend to write or enlarge upon a new subject. Much has been said and written-and well said and written too on the art of fishing but loch-fishing has been rather looked upon as a second-rate performance, and to dispel this idea is one of the objects for which this present treatise has been written. Far be it from us to say anything against fishing, lawfully practised in any form but many pent up in our large towns will bear us out when me say that, on the whole, a days loch-fishing is the most convenient. One great matter is, that the loch-fisher is depend- ent on nothing but enough wind to curl the water, -and on a large loch it is very seldom that a dead calm prevails all day, -and can make his arrangements for a day, weeks beforehand whereas the stream- fisher is dependent for a good take on the state of the water and however pleasant and easy it may be for one living near the banks of a good trout stream or river, it is quite another matter to arrange for a days river-fishing, if one is looking forward to a holiday at a date some weeks ahead. Providence may favour the expectant angler with a good day, and the water in order but experience has taught most of us that the good days are in the minority, and that, as is the case with our rapid running streams, -such as many of our northern streams are, -the water is either too large or too small, unless, as previously remarked, you live near at hand, and can catch it at its best. A common belief in regard to loch-fishing is, that the tyro and the experienced angler have nearly the same chance in fishing, -the one from the stern and the other from the bow of the same boat. Of all the absurd beliefs as to loch-fishing, this is one of the most absurd. Try it. Give the tyro either end of the boat he likes give him a cast of ally flies he may fancy, or even a cast similar to those which a crack may be using and if he catches one for every three the other has, he may consider himself very lucky. Of course there are lochs where the fish are not abundant, and a beginner may come across as many as an older fisher but we speak of lochs where there are fish to be caught, and where each has a fair chance. Again, it is said that the boatman has as much to do with catching trout in a loch as the angler. Well, we dont deny that. In an untried loch it is necessary to have the guidance of a good boatman but the same argument holds good as to stream-fishing...

Excerpt: ... food and habits. ii the minutest description--the larva? of water-insects or pellets of ova, picked up with address and assiduity from among the interstices of rocks and stones, from the foliage or roots of water-plants, or while floating past it in the descending current. And this caprice as to its food, while it tests the skill and experience of the angler, is assisted in doing so by the cunning and natural mistrust of the fish; its quick vigilant eye; its keen distinguishing sense of smell, and similar instinctive endowments and perceptions. The wariness and caution observable in trout frequenting certain localities are often, in fact, the result of circumstances, and indicate the existence of memory and other reflecting powers. It is not necessary, however, that a trout be pricked with the hook, in order to give so uncommon a degree of acuteness to its faculties, and render it more than ordinarily circumspect; the circumstance of its being frequently disturbed by the apparition of an insect clumsily imitated, or tackle of any other description, will of itself produce this effect. The disposition, also, of light and shadow near its haunt, the description and quantity of sustenance yielded within its feeding range, all subserve to create or banish distrust, to add to its wariness, or lull its suspicions. On the other hand, the pricking of the hook, unaccompanied by any exposure of the angler's contrivance wherewith the pricking was effected, will often fail to excite alarm. I could relate, were it necessary, many occurrences, met with from time to time, which prove that trout, although pricked, and actually retaining the hook in their lip or jaw, are not necessarily excited to distrust or suspicion, or thereby, through the continued...
