That’s amazing & probably like you this river is 15 minutes away from my home I’ve never even considered fishing it as you well know your just expecting a trolly or a mattress snag 😂 you have inspired me mate! If you don’t mind me asking what section do you recommend? I don’t know this river too well I mostly walk the park section but that’s it

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

If you're local, I'd definitely give the river some consideration. I'd start in the parks, just for the sake of accessibility, but if you have a pair of waders you can basically fish it from Shawlands up to Waterfoot. There is decent looking fly water around nearly every corner 👍🏼

[@johnbrown3951]

Hi there, really enjoyed watching that film. I used to be a really keen fisherman but have barely cast a line in a few years but recently retired (early) so looking forward to picking up where I left off. The only problem I was spoiled with access to most waters in the Western Isles and plentiful Salmon and Sea Trout. I am back on the mainland and live on the perimeter of Glasgow Airport so unsure of where my best options are but look forward to exploring in due course. Any pointers greatly appreciated. I have liked and subscribed.

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

Thanks John! Given where you live, I'd have a look at the Paisley/Abercorn angling club (paisleyabercornanglingclub.wordpress.com/fishing-beat-maps/) and the Bridge of Weir angling clubs. You have some brilliant small stream fishing for trout and grayling on your doorstep. If you cross over to the north of the Clyde, there's also fishing on the Kelvin and there's a permit that covers the Loch Lomond tribs (www.lochlomondangling.com/membership/). You might not find the serenity of the Western Isles, but you'll find plenty of overlooked water, wherever you fish. The Clyde is also an improving salmon river, but I don't fish for the silver tourists so can't really advise! Tight lines 🙏🏼🎣🐟

Will only miss the the 1st month of the season hopefully, fell of the ladder at work broken wrist and ribs gutted. that's a big fish for a river that doesn't look that big well done. I was wondering what video camera u use or would recommend to capture ur days fishing as I was looking to start doing the same thing as my kids are to small to take to the rivers and would love to show them the fish I hopefully catch on camera when i get home. As I release all the fish I catch. Keep up the good work 👍

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

Really sorry to hear that, mate. Thank God it was nothing more serious. To be honest, mate, I use my iPhone and a GoPro for everything you see on this channel now. I used to take my DSLR out with me but it's just another thing to lug around and I'd rather focus on the fishing. I pop the GoPro on the visor of my hat and stick the phone on a little Gorilla Pod somewhere discrete! Afterwards it's just a case of editing it all together and up it goes! The phone is theoretically waterproof but I use the GP for all of the underwater stuff. Really hope the kids get inspired. Mines is 3 and after much cajoling on her part, I've promised to take her next time we get a sunny day. Wish me luck 😂👍🏼🎣🐟

Hi Sean, I picked up my permit for The White Cart. I learned to fly fish on the Cart at Busby almost 20 years ago and this is my first year back on the water. Can you recommend any pools that I can try out this Saturday 5/06/21 if I start at the Busby hotel.
Thanks ✌
Craig

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

Hi Craig, great to hear you’re getting back on the water. I don’t know the busby stretch particularly well but I know there is access at the bottom of the playing fields at Overlee and at Busby Glen (if Scottish water are not still doing work). I normally fish at the top of Linn park but by now there should be trout all over the river. Ive found the busby aa Facebook page a great place to find information about the fishing and I’m sure one of the anglers who knows that stretch of river would point you in the right direction if you ask on there.

Hi pal, from Glasgow myself. Fish the river Kelvin. Nice wee spot you have found 👌🏼 what kind of flys were you using ?

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

Cheers mate! Need to get myself over to fish the Kelvin one of these days. This time of year I usually only use a couple of flies- Jinglers, CDC olive duns, F-flies, and generic emergers. Tight lines bud 👍🏼🐟🎣

Hi mate have you had any grayling out of the white cart

[@karin6936]

What side of the cart is this?

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

It's between Linn Park and Busby 👍🏼

[@DarioFerrari23]

Hi Sean, Where can i pick up a permit for this stretch of river?

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

It's Busby AA water, Dario. You can find out more on their facebook page: facebook.com/WCAIscotland. The guys who run the association are brilliant and it's only 30 quid for the season 👍🏼

@@SouthsideFlyFishing Ahh superb! A thought it was that stretch! Literally 10mins from my house 🙌🏼. Well done on the 3lber, stunning fish!

What’s the net your using

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

It's a McLean weigh net. The model is R111 but they're a nightmare to get hold of over here

Where do u fish on the white cart just starting out fly-fishing and need a spot

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

Great to hear you’re picking up fly fishing bud! There are a few good spots in Linn park both near snuff mill and upstream of the white bridge. Then there’s a few good spots upstream to netherlee and I know people who fish in busby Glen and up at Williamwood. You’re generally looking for rising fish or if there’s nothing hatching, streamy water running into a deeper pool would be a good place to focus. This time of year I’d be using spiders and nymphs size 14/16 cast upstream and left to hang below you for a few seconds before you recast. The fish will feed up before spawning if they can so, if the water’s up and coloured after a bit of rain at all between now and the end of the season, a weighted woolly bugger cast 45dg upstream and stripped back across the current could hook you a big one. Tight lines 🙏🏼🐟🎣

@@SouthsideFlyFishing do u think fishing a pheasant tail under a bung could be effective because i don't have many fly at the moment?

[@SouthsideFlyFishing]

PTN under an indicator can definitely work 👍🏼
