Ha Ha, what about the river calder ? it runs just down the back of my house near cleland.

Never heard of any grayling in the Calder, BG, but they could be there.

The Avon at Hamilton used to be quite reliable for grayling and there were decent numbers around Stonehouse too. I'd say the Clyde is a safer bet though.

heard the garrion brig USED to be a safe bet as well but as i dont know anyone who fishes there either i'm at a bit of a loss. :crap

A bit limited , but yes, the grayling are there. Dalserf and Mauldslie/Rosebank and Crossford are all decent areas on the lower river.

think i'm confused. dont know who i'm saying hello too. thanks for the warm welcome.

P.S I'm not drunk - yet :roflmao

Big G

i know where crossford is but how far from there is dalserf ? :dunno

Dalserf is the first turning on the left (heading from the Garrion toward Crossford) after the Garrion bridge, before you get to Mauldslie estate. Turn left onto Kirk road, park at the church car park and the river is across the fields from you.

Weighted nymphs in various colours should do fine.
