Goings on at Mid Clyde

Fishing past week
   Well guys yet another very wet week and river out of sorts . The rain stopped for the end of the week and the river became fishable People out on the water have been reporting all sizes of fish even some grilse and sea trout. Last night fresh fish could be seen creeping up the edges showing every now and again, hopefully the rain will abait a bit and we can get some more favourable conditions last night was high but jsut fishable with fly and carrying a bit of colour but there was visibility in the water

But to those who ventured the rewards were there to be tried for,One angler had a 4lb brownie on the salmon fly nowt new but lets you know the stamp of some of the non migratory fish
