Hi MD, i have never met you or spoken to you i have watched your channel for a while now and subscribed. I was shocked to see the scam video, i think you are a very honest and sincere man & you would always do a good turn never do a bad turn. Please get back out on the water because we all miss you and if people make a comment dont tell them what fly your using they are not your friends. good luck and best wishes look forward to your next video. paul

Hmm where is the line where a fly tying material is deemed to be bait?

Hiya mate, just subscribed 👍 I'm relatively new to fly fishing , so I'm trying to familiarising myself with everything. These unconventional flies keep drawing my attention and I'd love to add some of these unusual ones to my collection like this beetle. Could you recommend a few other quirky flies like this that would raise a few eyebrows 😂 And maybe lead to me raising a net under whatever takes one 😅 thanking you , Ross 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

The best lure in Newfoundland for sea run browns is a 4;; nail hammered and flattened out on both ends with rings put on for hook on one end and your line tied on the other end, paint it red cast it out, and reel it in fast

Thanks jeaps mate, gloves and behind the knees got the son of a b*tch apart

Tried this yesterday at raygill on a 10lb leader and didnt get a single tangle. Within a couple of casts I hooked into a 15lb rainbow. So satisfying to try a new method and to have success with it. I may never catch a fish like that again but its all thanks to you MD!

As a subscriber and someone who has bought some of your flies. I really enjoy these videos. Keep up the great work.

what landing net do you use????good?thanks

Really sorry to hear about this. Don't let the b***ds grind ya down. Been scammed myself, it's a horrible feeling.

I've bought flies from Robert in the past. When it's a reliable company, he will send before payment / while the payment is being made. He's probably the best Kenyan to work with for flies regarding quality and actually delivering. I'm sorry to hear there's been that type of scam going on, but as he put up a post to explain and apologize, I still stand by the fact he's a really good person I've met a few times in real life. Keep up the good work MD, I love your channel and I'm sorry for both of you that you got tangled into this !

Sorry to hear about this Mate . There are some scumbags out there.

Mick, I am sorry this happened to you, hope the keyboard hero’s get what’s coming to them. Stay safe and hope you get back on the water soon to enjoy the clam once more. Tight lines

NEWS IN From Robert in Kenya: After listening to this video and listening to some of my close friends in UK, it's clear now that someone used MD fly fishing address and brand to obtain flies from us. I would like to to apologise to the MD fly fishing for the damage done here. facebook.com/robert.ojoo.7?locale=en_GB From MD Apology Accepted

My too buddy. I have hundreds of orders right now, and I'm struggling to catch up, so people jump to conclusions. Keep getting it bro. ❤

I am sorry this has happened to you.

Hi Mick, sadly, scammers operate everywhere and have no scruples at all. Really not helped by individuals who are stupid enough to believe you're a scammer....if they're that stupid theyre likely to be scammed themselves....karma! Sorry you've been a victim too, not just the guy in Kenya. Glad you're pulling through mate!

anyone who knows you knows it wasn’t you, Mike. You’re a gent, not a thief. BC 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

For every internet sleuth, there's 10000 internet accusers 🤣

Very sorry to hear about this scam. Hopefully the support on this channel will help.

Well done Mick , stand your ground.

Im sorry but what idiot sends a product without being paid first anyway

Good on you pal, you shouldn’t have to make these videos but well done for standing up for yourself. Everyone that knows you or watches you’ve videos know you’re a down to earth person and would never do that. Keep going Mike!

Bloody hell, sorry to read about this mate, keep up the good work and show us your skills-great site, thanks-Ray Ex-3 Para

Why are you even explaining yourself anyone with an ounce of sense would have sussed this out and knew you were not involved in anything dodgy 👍

Well said sir its unbelievable what some scumbags will do but seller should have done a bit of checking before a big order like that and asked for a deposit before starting

Hi mate like watching your videos, sorry to hear about your troubles, there are too many people out there who will believe bad about people without evidence, its a terrible thing to be scammed these people have no shame, but you should not have to take the brunt of this from people who think it's ok to slander you with no concequences Stay strong as you know you did nothing wrong

You don't need to prove yourself to us Mucka, even as regular subscribers, we actually know you, trust you, have complete confidence in you. The idiot that sold the stuff without receiving payment, is a fool, but isn't it ridiculous that that fool can't get at the Thief who literally stole his flies, trading and hacking have gone bonkers. 100% supporter.

From what I can understand, this individual was scammed, which fair enough, it can happen to anyone when we are not 100% cautious. But instead of contacting his local authorities or messaging this scammer directly, he instead decided to drag MD's name through the mud on his social media, to no benefit to his case. In fact by posting information about his case on social media he has now thrown any chance of him getting the money he wants out of the windows. From what I can see by his social posts, MD is still tagged, which actually makes this individual liable for slander against MD. I will never understand the mental capacity, or lack there of, you need to have to not take the immediate steps to resolve the problem in the proper way, instead of slandering MD on social media. To those supporting MD, I thank you all. To those joining the slander, I advise you to start thinking for yourself rather than accepting every shred of information you are spoonfed through social media. I would also advise finding some kind of purpose in life, maybe touch some grass.

You hang in there and keep going and have faith in yourself the good people about you the police and let the shite from the idiot trolls fly over you and let hit ass holes that are involved in the bull . You stay safe .

Some thing similar happened to uk flyfisher he tyed a fly called black mamba someone pinched a fly sent it to kenya it came back as black Mombasa so I can feel for you pal Barry

Keep tying and keep sending us more fishing clips please md

Who the fuck sends that much product without receiving payment. I mean yeah, it sucks for them.. but they need to learn a fucking lesson there. Jesus Christ. Clueless. Feel for you MD - there’s a lot of clueless sheep on the internet that will attack without questioning anything. Keep your head up mate.

There's bstads like that everywhere sadly. Why people seem that one has to prove their innocence is also baffling. A quick to accuse and judge society for sure.

Hi MD, so sorry this has happened to you, we don’t know each other, but I very much enjoy watching your videos and learnt a lot from you. I have also purchased some of your flies which are great, in fact only two days ago I ordered some more. Don’t let them win, your a gentleman any one can see that if they watch your videos. Take care and keep positive regards Gary.

ill stand over MD flyfishing and put my reputation on you guys are 100% reliable and legitmate, there some toxic people about mick, i hope mate this resolves itself soon because ive know doubt your a victim of a pack of lies

Tied a few of these up for last weeks trip. Took 20 out of the 30 fish caught on the day. 👍🏻🎣

Hi Mick was it you that had the round disc that gave you a guide to what type of fly to use around the country at different times of the year.? If so have you thought about getting them made and selling them. You only need to change the design to make it yours 👍
