Freshwater fishes: angling in Scotland - an angling match on Loch Leven, 1862. Creator: Mason Jackson
Freshwater fishes: angling in Scotland - an angling match on Loch Leven, 1862. Engraving from a sketch by J. R. Prentice. Little can be said by naturalists about this fish except that it is a speciality among trout; and, although some learned people consider it identical with Salmo fario, we beg to differ with them never having found, in all our piscatorial wanderings a marrow to the trout of Loch Leven. These fish spawn in the beginning of the year and about the end of April are sufficiently recovered for the pursuit of the angler... The fine flavour and rich colour of the trouts of Loch Leven are supposed to result from the peculiarity of the feeding-ground and the fish is said to have declined in flavour since the loch was partially drained'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Mason Jackson, titled 'Freshwater fishes: angling in Scotland - an angling match on Loch Leven, 1862,' transports us back in time to a serene moment in Scottish history. The image, derived from a sketch by J.R. Prentice and published in the Illustrated London News, showcases a group of anglers engaged in a fishing match on the picturesque Loch Leven. The tranquil waters of the loch, surrounded by the stunning backdrop of the Scottish landscape, are dotted with rowboats and the ruins of Lochleven Castle. The angler's focus is on the unique and highly prized trout of Loch Leven. According to the text accompanying the image, these fish are considered a speciality among trout, with a rich flavour and vibrant colour. The trout in Loch Leven are believed to spawn at the beginning of the year, and by the end of April, they are considered suitable for angling. The image also highlights the leisurely pastime of angling, which was a popular pursuit among the British population in the 19th century. The anglers in the image are shown dressed in their finest attire, with their rods in hand and their boats at the ready. The scene is one of calm concentration, as each angler waits for the next bite. The image is a testament to the rich natural heritage of Scotland and the enduring appeal of angling as a pastime. It also serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural resources and the role they play in shaping our cultural identity.
