Annan,
Tweed and Clyde
A' rise oot o' ae hillside,
There was a ploy 'mang the three,
Wha wad first get to the sea,
Slow and smoothly flowed the Tweed,
Annan wan wi' greater speed,
Clyde fell doon wi' muckle din
And broke its neck owre Cora Linn (John Wilson)
Yes, the south of Scotland, too, has some marvellous
rivers.... the Tweed one of the top Scottish salmon fishing rivers; the
Clyde, hard to beat for trout and grayling fishing; the Nith, Annan and
Border Esk, often overlooked by those in a hurry to reach the highlands,
but each offering some of the most attractive, and productive, fly
fishing beats and most of them very accessible to the visiting angler.
