A Day Roaming Around Highland Hill Lochs With My Fly Rod

[@georgeaubrey547]

I have fished wild hill locks in Scotland,Ireland and Wales for years and never come across hill lochs with fish that size. Well done you

[@carlhughes9584]

You haven't fished much then!! I'm in my 3 rd year of fishing North Wales mountain lakes, and this year, had plenty big fish up to 2 and half pound.

Fantastic video, thoroughly enjoyed it. A big fan of the hill lochs, just the midges and clegs that are a nuisance mid summer onwards.

Fine looking brownies....and with the scenery and atmosphere as company. Someone asked which lochs.. Well could be any and the rest between Oban and Cape Wrath I suppose. Yes a good supply of Black Pennels Zulus ..maybe a Bloody butcher or Soldier Palmer....and a good pair of walking boots and gaiters. Tight lines and those decent dawndries in the hills for 2024. ....memories of Assynt Torridon and the far north west ... Simon Artley.

Fantastic

[@jamesrussell7775]

What flies were you using? The speed of retrieve suggests that the weren’t nymph patters.

[@wildflyfisher3373]

I had a team of Scottish wet flies on, usually something bushy like a bibio or zulu on top dropper, black penal, butcher or something similar on the point/ middle dropper. I think the likes of a black penal look like small pin-fry when retrieved quite fast. A teal blue and silver with a fine wing so it's long and thin in the water seems to work well too.

@@wildflyfisher3373 Thanks for that.
