The Clyde River winds through Shelburne County in southwestern Nova Scotia, Canada, flowing as a classic Maritime stream through a landscape of mixed forest and wetlands before reaching tidal waters near the coast. The river supports a modest but rewarding fishery, with the inland freshwater sections offering opportunities for brook trout and yellow perch in a relatively quiet, natural setting. The upper reaches provide suitable salmonid habitat with the kind of cool, clear water characteristic of Nova Scotia's smaller river systems, while the lower sections transition toward tidal influence near the Highway 103 bridge — the defined inland water boundary for this river.
