Chapter
The Confessions of a Duffer
The Confessions of a Duffer begins not with triumph but with cheerful resignation. The narrator, utterly lacking in angling finesse, accepts his place at the bottom of the fishing hierarchy with both humor and honesty. Unlike those who cast with precision or boast of trophy catches, he stumbles through rivers and mishandles his gear with an almost admirable consistency. His flies are stored not in tidy cases but in whatever book or pocket happens to be nearby. Essential tools are always forgotten, often…-

A Border Boyhood
A Border Boyhood awakens with the soft pull of memory—an evocation of landscapes etched not just in geography, but in the heart. The rivers Yarrow, Ettrick, and Tweed are not merely waterways, but vessels of story, carrying the dreams and echoes of childhood past. Even when one walks beneath foreign skies or lies under unfamiliar earth, the memory of those Border lands persists, gentle and enduring. The hush of the streams, the scent of old heather, and the gleam of foxglove in the dusk are not…-

Loch Awe–The Boatman’s Yarns
Loch Awe--The Boatman's Yarns begins not with a cast but with the recognition that true fishing in Scotland demands patience, travel, and a willingness to seek solitude far from crowded banks. 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…-

The Yarn of the Black Officer
The Yarn of the Black Officer begins with the echo of boots on stone and a name that stirs caution rather than reverence. The Black Officer, whose legend blends soldierly duty with dark mystique, first emerged during the 18th-century enlistment drives of the Black Watch. He moved through glens with a deceptive promise—that the men who followed him would merely march before the King in London. Instead, their destination was not ceremonial but colonial—India, far from home and riddled with conflict. The…-

Loch-Fishing
Loch-Fishing evokes more than the pursuit of trout; it taps into a deeper connection between angler and landscape, where every loch tells its own tale. In Scotland, these waters stretch far beyond the ordinary, offering challenges shaped by nature’s whims and the fish’s unspoken instincts. One might find eager, finger-length trout in Loch Borlan that rise with childlike trust, while Loch Awe holds its secrets closer, sheltering elusive giants in darker depths. The contrast is stark yet poetic,…-

Chapter
Loch Leven
Loch Leven presents itself not merely as a body of water but as a canvas layered with centuries of history and the quiet complexity of fly fishing. For the angler, it offers not just a test of skill but a dialogue between solitude and society. The loch, ringed by green slopes and whispered legends, asks its visitors to cast more than just their lines—it asks them to reflect. The author steps into this space with a consciousness shaped by contrast: the reflective rhythm of fishing versus the noisy gamble…-

Chapter
The Bloody Doctor
The Bloody Doctor begins with a recollection as sharp as the breeze skimming the loch’s surface—where triumph is rare, but every cast carries hope. The narrator revisits Clearburn Loch, a rugged haven where trout still thrive despite dwindling populations elsewhere. The loch, distant and unforgiving, holds a charm stronger than logic. It’s not the ease of the catch that draws anglers, but the purity of the challenge. Even on days when lines come back empty, the promise of wild fish gliding under…-

The Lady or the Salmon?
The Lady or the Salmon? opens with the quiet intensity of a man not merely fishing, but facing the final reckoning of his heart. The Hon. Houghton Grannom, once bound for marriage and happiness, now casts his line not for sport, but for release. On the very waters of the Tweed, his actions speak more of sorrow than strategy. The cancellation of his wedding to Olive Dunne, following a scandal too recent to forget, has left him with a wound pride cannot mask. His journey to The Trows isn’t just an…-

Chapter
A Tweedside Sketch
A Tweedside Sketch begins with an unvarnished admission of the narrator’s long-standing flaw—carelessness. It’s not born of laziness, but of a restless temperament that overlooks the small things. While such oversight might seem harmless in the moment, it builds a habit that eventually touches every part of life, even something as seemingly peaceful as fishing. As the narrator prepares for a salmon-fishing trip on the River Tweed, this trait resurfaces, leading to yet another avoidable misadventure.…-

Chapter
The Double Alibi
The Double Alibi takes shape in a remote glen, where the land lies mostly forgotten by travelers and the silence carries the weight of untold stories. In this untouched corner of Western Galloway, solitude is not just present—it is total. The narrator, drawn there not for trout or company but for peace to work on a manuscript, finds solace in the shepherd’s house. With modest comforts and meager fishing prospects, the setting suits a soul in search of distance from a chaotic world. Amid the quiet,…-
