Background
History
In the 1892 annual report of the Fishery Board for Scotland, Loch Tulla was noted as having trout fishing that was unsurpassed in Scotland sixty years prior, but had since been ruined by the introduction of pike by Lord Breadalbane after being advised by "some dangerous person" to do so in 1848.
