TOUR IN SUTHERLAND. 



CH. III. 



Loch Laighal, Loch Maddie, and Loch Naver all 

 abound in the finest trout, and contain also plenty 

 of the Salmo ferox or great lake trout, which is 

 caught only by trolling, or by lines baited with 

 small fish. In Loch ISTaver there are plenty of 

 salmon : I am told that they rise freely and well 

 when the wind is from the south-east, but seldom 

 when it blows from any other quarter.
