THE BEAULY 185 



a take by the nets of 10,000 or 12,000 was quite common. The 

 tidal water still holds large quantities of sea trout and also gives 

 a few salmon. In 1904 the Moniack Castle water, of about three 

 miles in extent, yielded twenty-two salmon and 635 sea trout, and 

 for 1905 twenty salmon and many sea trout, and since those days 

 there has been little alteration. 



On Mrs. Chisholm's Erchless water on the Glass, a tributary 

 of the Beauly, the two miles of the north bank have yielded as 

 follows : —
