Considered one of the classic reference works on Scottish trout fishing. First published in 1983 and later expanded and updated, the book serves as a comprehensive gazetteer of Scotland's lochs and lochans, covering waters throughout the Highlands, Lowlands, the Western Isles, Orkney and Shetland. It provides anglers with practical information on access, fishing permissions, local amenities and the character of each fishery. Sandison combines detailed research with firsthand angling knowledge, offering thumbnail descriptions of hundreds of lochs. For each water, he discusses the trout populations, likely fish sizes, productive areas and effective fly patterns and tactics. The book was designed as a practical tool for anglers exploring Scotland's vast range of wild trout fisheries, from famous waters to remote, little-known lochans. B&w photographs throughout. Very good condition. Hardcover, 22.5cm x 14.5cm, 285 pages.
