Fly Fishing for Trout: Part 1| River fishing for Brown Trout | Estuary fishing for Sea trout

Late last summer we made a rather late decision to have a go at river fly fishing, a style of fishing that neither of us are at all experienced in. This lack of experienced reflected a complete and utter lack of competence, and after several sessions we ended a rather half-hearted attempt with nothing to show for it but frustration and disappointment.
So naturally, we're back at it, only this time a good bit earlier in the year. That way, the dejection and suffering can last the whole summer.
We begin this year's fly fishing farce on the river, before returning to something a little more familiar. Maybe this year we'll get off to a flyer... Or maybe not!

Great video lads. Used to catch fish all day and night on that stretch of the river. Changed days now though. Best chance down there would be a nice summers evening.

[@neilandrew961]

Great again guys that bit of the clyde you were fishing gets pretty hammered I don’t go near it to many people hog the best pools up there were I fish you hardly see an angler but still getting plenty of good fish from it

[@louisperallos3228]

[@angling360]

I'm using a greys 7wt on the river and an 8wt on the sea trout mate. Gordon.

[@angling360]

@@louisperallos3228 I think it's a greys gtx7 the one with the extra cassettes

My pike fishing is requiring a million casts just now, too, it seems.

🤦‍♂️

Was down there today at that spot and nothing doing for me. Moved along to the narrows and tried it there for a spell. Quite a few sea trout jumping all around but were not interested in the fly or lure. That's fishing as we all know only too well. Tight lines boys. 😀

[@angling360]

I was going to head down, well that was my plan last night, but that sun this afternoon was way to bright, one thing I have learned is bright sunshine n sea trout don't go together.

[@brianfalconer9499]

@@angling360 yep I can confirm that's a fact. Never had a good day when it's that bright. Water down at the narrows was ultra murky. Don't know if that's due to the recent heavy rains or not. Never give up. never surrender. 😀😀

Stunning work guys hard fishing but sometimes you’ve got just look back and seeing the beauty of the place for me that’s just magic tight lines from deepest Kenrow

[@angling360]

Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers mate.

[@ThomasLinnie]
