Default rainbows in the clyde

was the river clyde stocked today with rainbows you would have thought it was,i fished it today or i tried to fish it today with a couple of mates for the grayling.every pool was occupied with guys with either lead boots on or they where standing on platforms absolute murder it was,they would fish runs upstream then they would about turn & fish them down as were coming up behind,what a waste of a cracking day weather wise to.so come on guys if you want to stand on a platform get your blobs out & go for the rainbows,ps must be hard casting bubble floats with fly rods.

No luck Craigie, I take it you where at Wolfclyde today? That will teach you for visiting it on a saturday!!! Won't be long till Wolfclyde is humped to ****.

Let me guess those thingamabobbers where getting used? Those people shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a fly rod let alone a riverbank.

Anyways, did you catch anything? Give us a phone thats me back up the road from London.
