SALT-WATER LOCHS. 81 



the cool of a summer evening cannot be imagined 

 rowing slowly along those romantic shores hearing the 

 distant gurgle of the dwindled mountain brook in its 

 steep descent, and ever and anon passing the blue-curl- 

 ing smoke of a shepherd's or fisherman's grass-topped 

 cottage on the banks. 



I have now, I think, given all the necessary instruc- 

 tions in fresh-water and sea-loch fishing ; and feel con- 

 fident, that by following them the admirer of " flood and 

 fell," even if a beginner in angling, may return from his 

 fishing tour, having as often filled his creel from their 

 depths as gratified his taste with their scenery.
