Episode 11: My 2024 LRF Species Hunt - Avon Dam

[@Ul.lure.xenial.84]

Always great fun catching trout and your video showed that off brilliantly

[@LRFandHRF]

Thanks. They're great little fish aren't they. Love catching them and glad it shows

Some absolutely beutiful scenery and fish in this episode Dan. I have to admit to despising the rain, bit you and Rich braved it and reaped tje rewards! Fair play

[@LRFandHRF]

Cheers Carl. We honestly weren't expecting that weather. The forecast was mostly fog. But I think being in the actual cloud meant the forecast was off. Still a great day

[@paulhopper988]

Great Video and session Dan. Used to fish there a lot some years back. Beautiful place, especially in decent weather 👍

[@LRFandHRF]

Thanks Paul. It was my first time up there and definitely want to go back in better weather

[@ch0cchip704]

Great video that was some soggy conditions but actually good conditios to fish in some nice fish with beautiful markings

[@LRFandHRF]

Thank you. Those soggy conditions weren't forecast either. The fish didn't seem to mind though. Gorgeous fish up there

[@DevonLerfer]

Great footage of a thoroughly enjoyable day, must go again soon, on a slightly drier day preferably 😅

[@LRFandHRF]

Thanks mate. A session to remember for a few reasons haha. I'd happily go uo there again. But a nice dry 14° day preferably. Never want to be the wet again. EVER!

[@londonviking3801]

Wow - that looks like the best fun! What great fighters for such tiddlers. Gotta be a few large specimens in that dam too. Beautiful fish beautifully filmed!

[@LRFandHRF]

Thanks. Certainly was enjoyable! I've heard there are big ones in there. But I'd happily have the little ones all day long.

Magnífico vídeo lindas capturas 🎣

[@LRFandHRF]

Thank you. They really are beautiful aren't they

[@mattwhite6933]

Channel nearly completed! Love these videos, the way you edit them is great! I've been LRF quite a few times recently and blanked every time but finally caught yesterday, a nice Whiting so my 2024 species hunt is now of the mark at one! I was using an SG3 SS hook, bit of Gulp red worm on a drop-shot rig (stolen idea from a certain channel!) off a pier, was so chuffed to be off the mark. Hopefully many more to come. Looking forward to the next video 🎣😁 I popped into my local tackle shop yesterday and asked if anyone else goes LRFing around here (North Norfolk) and he asked me what LRF was, oh dear!

[@LRFandHRF]

Wow! Thanks for all the views. Glad some of the info is coming through and being useful.

[@StephenDennis-s8v]

I really enjoyed watching that video, it's such a special place to fish and you had some lovely marked brownies. Hats off to you both for fishing in such poor conditions. Worth it though 👍

[@LRFandHRF]

Glad you enjoyed it Steve. Was a nice session

[@alanfielding3491]

Brilliant vid as ever, you have the most dedication I think I have ever seen. 👏👏👏

[@LRFandHRF]

Thanks Alan. 😊

[@4fun428]

❤

[@LRFandHRF]

👌🏻

[@darrenrodd.]

I'm surprised they allow spinning gear all I see on places is fly fishing only nice vid 👍🎣

[@LRFandHRF]

Its one of the few spots you can spin. Well worth a walk up there.

[@stevewest4750]

Great video mate. Fished it once many years ago. Do you still need just a rod licence to fish there and is it just spinners?

[@LRFandHRF]

Thank you. Yeah you do need a rod licence and it's fly or lures from what I've been told. Don't forget to Subscribe. Plenty more trout action to come

[@bassblanker5359]

Cracking video, although not sure I would have braved that weather!!! I notice you stuck with the trout spoon, do you like hard plugs at all for them pls?

[@LRFandHRF]

Thanks. It was far too windy for plugs that day but I do use them. Have a look at the trout videos on this playlist. Caught quiet a few from the river on plugs. kzbin.info/aero/PLCrdza055FOJMPRXsRyiAIarAt3i5NAls&si=mh-cC_AHWYS7WM6b

[@bassblanker5359]

Many thanks I will check them out. My default lure is a mepps, but, would like to branch out and try plugs,, maybe even soft plastics.

[@LRFandHRF]

If caught plenty on rapala and amg lures plugs. I think anything that is erratic will trigger a bite from a trout.

[@Aaron-pu9gg]

How far were you casting gonna give it a go tommorw

[@LRFandHRF]

Just a full cast. Not sure how far in meters. But they were taking all over. Some out far. Some in close. Good luck
