#80 : Our BIGGEST Trout Ever at Dever Springs

[@Caithnessflyfisher]

To be honest 140 quid for a session is far too expensive.. There are other fisheries out there with bigger fish for more than half the price Dever seems to be asking for. With those prices, the sad reality is, less folk will want to go anymore... Time to search for cheaper alternatives for the majority of anglers I reckon.. Come up to Scotland.. Insch, Kinross and ledyatt are our big fish water. Mega fish for 30 to 50 quid a pop 👍.. What a fish Martyn... I felt your lactic acid build up from here 😂 😊

Thanks mate, that fish never gave up.

[@colinryder4326]

What a fantastic fish what a place Dever is and home made flies.

[@martynwilliams7229]

Thanks mate

[@martynwilliams7229]

Guys ,I totally agree that £140 for what could be 4 x 5lbers is way to expensive. 😢😢😢😢

[@jamespugh9214]

Awesome video Martin 👏🏻 let’s hope Dever will open soon?! 👌🏻

[@ChrisSharpUK]

Love Dever, my son caught a 24.8Ib there, a very special fish at a very special place however, £140 for a session makes it a treat rather than a regular place and that must ultimately affect the profits.

Cracking video well done boys! The fight of your big fish mart was unbelievable had me on the edge of my seat 😅👌🏻

[@neilsilverfox69]

By far your best video. What amazing Fish. well done

[@martynwilliams7229]

Thank you mate 👍

[@mikesaul8711]

[@JonFisher-ql6xe]

[@colinryder4326]

Sorry did not wait for the next fish what can I say WOW WOW WOW

[@Grandpa-Chris]

Awesome fishing Martyn.

[@crazy_for_fly_fishing]

Well in boys 👍🎣

[@neilsilverfox69]

Amazing Guys, well done 👍

[@charliemiller444]

2 Fish over 17lbs is amazing but I agree the price of 140 a days is away above my price scale and just can't justify that sort of money for one day out for one person.

[@Caithnessflyfisher]

Was gonna say.. I had a very similar style scrap recently on my last video.. I dunno if it's because of how much cooler it is up here in the far north, or if there's something in the air that's making fish these scrap like buggery, but my last fish at 6lb 13oz took me 9 mins to get in.. That's unheard of... Normally I wrench them in around 5 mins... Must just be time of Yr

[@morgandaniel1589]

Awesome video!!! Any idea when Dever is back open?

[@martynwilliams7229]

@morgandaniel1589 thank you mate, they haven't announced any date yet??

[@richiehall4832]

Not surprised at £140, those prices will kill DEVER

[@martynwilliams7229]

It's been closed now for 3 week's mate, not good.

[@sag2267]

95 to 140 is a possible take

You need to have a heart monitor

[@oldgold5848]

Stupid, stupid money for fishing. And sorry that that seems negative. No hate, just my opinion.

[@waynesmith4589]

This is very sad £140 with no C&R, you could be home before breakfast. Perhaps they’re trying to make it a more elite fishery ? get rid of the Riff Raff ?

[@martynwilliams7229]

My feeling is they will close it as a fishery, I suppose we may get a idea at the end of march after a month of the new price increase

[@waynesmith4589]

@@martynwilliams7229 It will be sad if it closes as i like watching your video's, great entertainment, on a personal note i do most of my fishing on the reservoirs as i prefer that sort of fly fishing so it doesn't really affect me.

[@markfleming1177]

Just called Dever to make a booking and been told “closed due to circumstances beyond our control” Anyone know what’s happened?

[@martynwilliams7229]

Hello mate, all we know is that there's a bit of ag in the camp and 2 staff have gone down sick 😢😢 Hopefully they can sort out all the ag and get back open soon, fingers crossed mate

[@markashby2280]

Far too expensive.

[@mackienzie71843]

Fishery is a ripoff 140 for 2 trout heard people catching 5lb trout there

[@andrewsmyth6027]

too expensive for a small stew pond,

[@craigdebeer1444]

most expensive fish ever. You have to be Rockefeller.

[@martynwilliams7229]

Yip

[@jim22222]

Had the misfortune to go there in 2005. Saw fish everywhere. Caught an 18lb Rainbow on an epoxy buzzer. No satisfaction whatsoever…ugliest looking fish I ever caught. Small stocked ponds not for me……but each to their own.

[@johngraham5996]

that first 'bow in the video is far too fat for a trout, they should'nt be deep like carp, ridiculous looking trout

[@damienrees9660]

Me and 3 friends fish there twice a year as it was slightly pricey 6-7 years ago I always catch there beautiful fishery Well kept and some stunning fish I believe they should up there standard stocking size to a minimum of 6lb And stock more doubles The usual case at dever for us would be a bag of 4n half lb fish If your upping the price stock bigger fish
