Excerpt from Angling and Art in Scotland: Some Fishing Experiences Related and Illustrated Although this book is entitled "Angling and Art in Scotland," it must not be thought that it is in any way a treatise upon painting. A parallel is drawn between the art of the angler and that of the landscape painter which is, to my mind, very real and ever present; but there, as far as the writing of the book goes, the matter ends; for I have devoted my space to the narration of certain angling experiences and descriptions of scenery which, I hope, may be of interest not only to the angler but to the general reader, and have left my pictures to speak for themselves as illustrative of the kindred art of landscape painting.

Excerpt from The Art of Angling: As Practised in Scotland The very limited number, if not total want, of dissertations upon the subject of Angling in Scotland, and the necessity for having something like an index to our lochs and streams, have induced us to throw together the following chapters. In character and produce, our waters differ very essentially from those of England; we have clear and rapid rivers - torrents black with mosses, or pellucid as diamond - lakes large, and gleaming - tarns deep, still, and terrible, and of these, some are stored with prime, subtle trout, and others are frequented by the active salmon, "the monarch of the flood." On the other hand, the English waters are generally flat and muddy, affording few fish, except those which delight in dead, calm places, such as pike, carp, roach, bream, and perch. The trout they may happen to contain are also very unlike those in Scotland, becoming large and lazy, dainty in their tastes, and capricious as to their feeding hours. Accordingly, a very different and more ingeniously varied method of capturing them, is employed by the southern angler from that practised by us. The fancy is excercised to compound tackles and artifices, which appear altogether superfluous to the eyes of Scotsmen. Insects also are constructed, which, however closely they resemble nature, are seldom if ever preferred by our countrymen to their own simple undazzling materials.
