I think Urbanflyfisher has a blog about fishing the Kelvin.That might be worth a look.

As Jim has said,
The Urban Fly Fisher

You will find dries work very well, such as a wee grey duster or a Wyhatts (sp?) emerger.

As a student in the West End in the late 80s/early 90s, living just at the back of the Botanic Gardens and BBC studios, it was just minutes walk for me.

Much missed.
