Lochs & Loch Fishing

"e;Lochs & Loch Fishing"e; is an 1899 guide to angling in Scotland written by Hamish Stuart. Within it, Stuart explores the nuances of fishing in a loch, which is the Scottish Gaelic, Irish, and Scots word meaning lake or sea inlet. More detailed than typical guides of its kind, "e;Lochs & Loch Fishing"e; looks at the particulars of loch fishing with reference to its inhabitants, their evolution, habits, habitats, and much more. This volume will appeal to those with a practical interest in fishing in Scotland, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of angling literature. Contents include: "e;The Duffer's Paradise"e;, "e;Lake-Land and Its Lessons"e;, "e;Loch Trout and Evolution: Why They Vary in Size and Quality"e;, "e;Loch Trout and Evolution: The Effects of Particular Environments"e;, "e;Fishing as the Hand-Maiden of Science"e;, "e;The Lessons of Some Lakes"e;, "e;The Salmonidae in Brackish Waters"e;, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of fishing.
