The river has been in excellent order for angling, and which has been greatly taken advantage of particularly on the Minnock and High Cree. Fish are, very plentiful, we don't remember of so many killed with the rod as has been this year. The most successful that we have heard of were the Earl of Galloway. Major Stewart, Rev. John Barclay, and Mr Henry Dickinson, gamekeeper, Cumloden. The latter killed lately, in one day, 5 grilse and 2 trout. The most favourite part of High Cree, and where fish are most numerous, is the Lynn of Bargrennan. Not only those who reside near the place fish it regularly, but people from a distance as well. We have seen as many as 9 rods there in a day. Fish accumulate there, at it is almost impossible for them to get farther. The water-fall is almost perpendicular, and the height may vary from 15 to 20 feet. Most of the fish are dark brown, caused by the length of time they have been in the fresh water. We are inclined to believe that many of the spring salmon which reached there in the month of April are there still. It is a pity, for the protection of salmon, that no attempt is made to blow the rocks and allow the fish to pass. Sea trout are also numerous, and with them good sport has been had.
