SALMON TAILS UP THE WATER [2]. AKA and see "Bainis choinich," "Bob o' Dooly (The)," "Carlin is Your Daughter Ready?," "Jenny Cameron's Rant," "Port Nan Con." Scottish, Strathspey (whole time). A Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Lowe): AABB (Kerr). Some resemblance to John Rook's "Salmon Tails (2)" in the first strain, but different enough so as not to be cognate. The second strains are different.
