Both of these stories have mentions of the famous water spirit, the Kelpies. These two sources I was able to instantly know from growing up with a full Scottish grandfather who would talk of Kelpies to warn us kids about playing by the lakeside or riverbanks alone. I read through a few stories that mentioned the Kelpie but these two were the closest to the stories that I have heard from my grandfather and great grandparents as a child.

This pages that are within this text contain the mentions of Selkies, a half fish half man mythological water creature from Scottish tales. I viewed other documents that had tales of these selfies just the same as what is mentioned intros text which is what lead me to believe that this source is creditable. There isn't a tale of the Selkies on the Wikipedia page, this could be added into it as under water myths which are a lot of Scottish myth tales.
