Sgadan beag nan lochan
-
Bhiodh an sgadan so, lan meilg is iuchair a’ dol a steach gu ruigeadh feamainn nan creag do gach loch mara is òb sios corsa sear Leódhais gach geamhradh mu am na bliadhn’ ùire. Bha e mar gum biodh iad a’ cur feum air uisge nan allt ’s nan aibhnichean. An diugh ’se gle bheag den sgadan so a gheibhear anns na lochan so – tha na ‘ring-netters’ ga ghlacadh a muigh anns a’ chuan mus ruig e tir. Cha chreid mi gu bheil iad a’ faighinn na h-uighir dheth ann an Loch Fìn fhein an diugh. ’Se gle bheag de bhàtaichean ‘drift-nets’ a tha ris an iasgach sin an diugh is mar sin ’se gle bheag de chutadh a tha dol air adhairt. Bha uair ’s ge bith de am bàta gu rachadh tu, bochd ’s ga robh iad, thairgte ‘fry’ dhuit. An diugh feumaidh tu do làmh a chur ’na do phocaid.
