Hi vince I was wondering if your fishing season was still open as we're in closed season here in scotland ?

[@vincemacfarlane9724]

No, I live in Boston MA, I fish for Salmon in Nova Scotia. The season there closed October 31st. We here are actually jellouse @@Salmonaddicts

[@vincemacfarlane9724]

Salmon season in Nova Scotia starts on June 1st

really wanted to see that 1 I don't get why so many videos of people fighting atlantic salmon pretty much always try to stop the fish from running let them run. Must be an east coast thing lol.

[@vincemacfarlane9724]

I wanted to see him too!! I was talking to my buddy when it took the fly. I was on the dangle for like 5 seconds. I think I was afraid of it getting into a big log and stick jam at the bottom. Normally I’m much more relaxed 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ericluscombe3272]

@@vincemacfarlane9724 we have all been there lol. I have lost some big fish in the past trying to slow them down myself I found nothing good comes from that as you know lol. I just let them go now I figure if I force him he is going to snap me off so I let him do his thing and hope for the best. Besides as you found out I've gotten some good knuckle busters trying to stop them lol.

[@vincemacfarlane9724]

No, you’re right! You have to let them run. Trust your equipment. I make mistakes when I get excited. But it’s fun because we get so excited lol. I hope that never changes 🤣

Music totally ruined it for me:(

[@vincemacfarlane9724]

Sorry… tough to please everyone .

[@MrKveite1]

Not a problem sir, i just dont watch your vids so it wont be a problem. The reason is when i go fishing i cant afford a band or any artist playing music for me so i want to hear the river, birds, wildlife in general, the reel singing comments from people near by etc.@@vincemacfarlane9724
