The Mysteries of Piobaireachd Vol 2: Addendum

The last post in this category was about the story behind a few piobaireachd tunes, and I just heard another that I had to share.

A highland village near a loch relied heavily on the men of the village to catch enough fish to get through the winter.  In one particular year the old men were to old to fish and the young men devoted their efforts to catching young ladies instead of fish; the resulting tune of the hardships of the village is "Scarce of Fishing."
