South of the Pentland Firth, angling grows scarce, spoiled by overuse and proximity to urban sprawl. But Loch Awe, though touched by time and tourism, remains a place where the rhythm of water still beats slowly. It is not untouched—railways and lodges have left their mark—but it still offers quiet for those…-
