Synopsis

Scotland’s salmon and trout fisheries are ideal for ‘rambles’. They are an infinite variety and mostly easily accessible.

Thomas Tod Stoddart wrote his classic book Angler’s Rambles and Angling Songs in 1866 and this has inspired anglers for generations.

This is all exciting fishing - but behind the ‘casting and catching’ there is a back-story for the ‘thinking angler’ - the people, places, history and a wee bit of science - which make it all possible.

The author has ‘rambled’ around Scotland’s salmon and trout fisheries for more than 70 years - fishing, meeting, conserving, managing and writing about them. This book emphasises that “There is more to fishing than catching fish”.

He takes the reader from the Tweed to the Orkneys; from the Hebrides to Angus - to meet some of the people, places and conservation projects behind Scotland’s trout and salmon fisheries.
