Brilliant video mate subbed, I would just like to ask you what those flys you had on were because I have a smaller version almost like a booby without the polystyrene, it got absolutely mullered and the hook broke so if you could help I would appreciate it. Tight lines👍 Also are they wild browns? Because there monsters 😂 never-mind you said in the video 😂

Hi - thanks for your comment - the flies were self tied humongous patterns tied on size 8 Kamasan B175 hooks. If you buy flies, don't buy cheap ones as the materials, including the hooks are low quality. Buy better quality more expensive flies and they will last longer and let you down much less. Thanks for watching and tight lines 🐟

Great days fishing,all fish in brilliant condition. What kind of footwear was that you had on?

[@FanaticalFlyFishing]

They are neoprene "shoes" that Sailboarders and Yacht sailors use. You can get them at a chandlers store or a sports shop. Very good for in the boat as they make less noise, are more comfortable than big bots and a lot easier to get on and off. Hope this helps.

Great days fishing guys! What make & weight line & rod are you using? Seems to work well 🤟

[@FanaticalFlyFishing]

Hi - thanks for watching! We were using 7 weight outfits with Di3 and Di5 sinking lines. Tight lines and best regards.

Can you recommend tactics for big fry feeding browns on Rutland?

[@FanaticalFlyFishing]

Hi Tom, thanks for watching! For Rutland, use the same tactics as what you saw on the Pitsford article but also try popper fry patterns along the weed bed margins and minkie patterns in shallow water where there are fry. A clue to locating the fry is that there will be Grebes fishing for them so look out for them and you have found the fry - the Trout will not be far away. Tight lines!

Really enjoy all your videos. Good stuff. Are you drifting in this one?

[@FanaticalFlyFishing]

Thanks Chris, much appreciated, I enjoy making them. Yes we were drifting while targeting big Browns at Pitsford. It's a much better bet than staying in one place on the anchor. Thanks for watching and tight lines!
