Flyfishing for Salmon July 2023 - We finally got some rain, Yes!

Its the first week in July 2023 and we have finally had some rain. The river has come up a little and the salmon have moved up river at last. In this video I go fly fishing for salmon on my local river. A double figure salmon grabs the fly and an incredible battle ensues.

Beautiful fish that. Can you get day tickets to fish that section of the river ?

[@GoneFishingNow]

Thanks, you can indeed by contacting Bandon Angling Association

[@phcobh]

@@GoneFishingNow I've passed that water so many times over the years. Bought a day ticket last year for up higher in the river. Was a disaster, I couldn't fly fish it at all

[@GoneFishingNow]

Hi there, home made pattern. Had orange colour in it.
