Salmon Spinning Fishing In Scotland. River Tay

4 friends headed to Scotland for salmon fishing adventure. None of us been fishing for salmon before so it was totally new experience.
We had about 5 hours drive with astonishing views to the place where we spent a night. We were amazed with our accommodation with coffee and another bits for breakfast. After we left our belongings, we been driving around to enjoy sceneries and visited one local waterfall - it was beautiful!
Early in the morning we had another 40 minutes drive surrounded by mind blowing beauty of Scotland , to the place where we met our fishing guide, on the bank of the river Tay.
We had introduction of our fishing gear and fishing methods. The guide was super friendly and a funny guy. Definitely made our day better than we expected.
We been divided in 2 groups to fish different stretches of the river Tay. After half a day we swapped.
Not all of us caught the salmon but we all witnessed of salmon being brought on the bank.
Our hopes to catch at least one was exceeded. Absolutely beautiful nature, awesome fishing adventure, super nice fishing guide - thank You for incredible day! Enjoyed every bit of Your adventure!!!
Scotland beauty is mind blowing!!!

There is something about this vid that cracks me up. It's a GTA IV fishing video.... and then the Scottish fellow pipes in(pun intended) and its great. I have also been wanting to fish salmon in Scotland for forever. "Subscribed".

[@smiffywildlife]

Another epic fishing adventure in an area of outstanding beauty. Salmon, the king of the river, and showing you the reason they are so called 👌 keep the rod tip high so it can give you the maximum shock absorber. Line recovery in an action referred to as pumping, line taken back as you lower the tip, stop reeling in, raise rod tip, and so on. Often used when landing large Carp at distance. This upload has to be one of your best, and I notice that your subscribers are increasing, and justifiably I feel privileged to have been with you on ALL of your adventures, and will continue to do so my friend. Thank you for sharing, and taking me along. Phil.

[@ManAndRod]

Hi Phil 👋 Thanks for being together and always from very beginning 💪 It was my favourite fishing adventure so far. Hope in a future I will have some even better 😁 Scotland have outstanding beauty indeed, would like to be able to spend way much more time over there 😀 definitely coming back one day. With salmon - king of the river - being still in my bucket list, I have to come back 😁 I seen this pumping method before but so far I didn't come across the fish witch would require this method. But salmon is one of them without doubt. I am very happy that You find my adventures interesting and especially this one 😁💪👍 This channel is growing - slowly but growing, I guess I'm doing something right 😅 And Phil - I feel privileged to have friends like You, my pleasure to take You along.

Man And Rod with many comments and messages, I feel I have known you all my life, not forgetting that when I first subscribed, last year, I was in a very sorry state with serious health issues, you don't realise how much pleasure and positively you have provided in my recovery from major surgery and even worse, chemotherapy. I shall always be eternally thankful to you and your fishing adventures. Your channel has gained many more subs. and as mentioned previously, justifiably so, long may it continue.👌🎣✅

[@ManAndRod]

Words can't describe how happy I am to have helped You by taking You with me on my adventures. As someone who has a close family member go through chemotherapy for leukemia, I can only sympathise and say: I hope You are fighting Your battles and keeping strong. I also hope You will stay with me on my future adventures to come 👌🎣

[@smiffywildlife]

Man And Rod . Most definitely, and I am a fighter, but haven't done any fishing in over 18 months. Gedis, you are a true gentleman, and I'll be with you on many many more adventures, and to see your channel grow.

[@ManAndRod]

Very good 💪💪 18 months without fishing is very long time. Are you getting better and thinking to do it any time soon?

Great video guys! Could you please tell me name of the place where you've been fishing and if is possible just to rent the accommodation?

[@ManAndRod]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed 🤝🎣 Fishing day we booked through Fishpal. River Tay and it's in Upper Kinnaird beat. We stayed 40min with car away from fishing location but it was much cheaper. We booked through Airbnb. Just type Cottage Style Dwelling In Quiet, Scenic Location. It is hosted by Dina. You should find. Hope You will enjoy your fishing adventure 😁 Tight lines 🤝💪🎣🎣🎣

[@branislavkozak845]

Why you using bait runner for spinning? Any specific reason lol?🤣

[@ManAndRod]

No, there was no reason, just rod and reel was provided by gillie lol 😅

What country are you from my friend? Come back to Scotland soon and try catch big pike. We have hundreds of lochs with BIG pike! 👍

[@ManAndRod]

I live in England but originally I'm from Lithuania. I would love to catch some Scottish big pike. As you said, there is so many lochs... maybe you can recommend one or few of them? 👍🎣

[@CraigyC82]

@@ManAndRod looks like you had a good time. There is a lithuanian guide on the Tay near Aberfeldy, not far from where you were.

[@ManAndRod]

I had a good time indeed 😁 I'll try to find this guide, maybe next time when I'll be in Scotland. Thanks 😉🤝🎣

[@aldomcgowan6561]

Absolutely brilliant video and stunning fish how much are the day permits for there ?

[@ManAndRod]

Thanks 😉 Happy that You enjoyed 😁 I don't know how much would be for day permits. We booked day with fishing guide. They provided necessary clothing, fishing gear and we paid almost 300£ per person

@@ManAndRod no problem thanks

[@garyrobertson9534]

What spinners were yous using?

[@ManAndRod]

It was Abu Garcia Toby and some sort of Flying C

[@mikehitchen4487]

Can you advise who you organised it with - looks fantastic

[@ManAndRod]

Mainly I did everything. I just googled salmon fishing guide river Tay. Grabbed one of the first what came up. They provided with all necessary clothing and fishing gear. Place where we spent a night i booked few days before trip by using booking.com app. We booked about 40 min drive from fishing spot and saved about 60%. Close to fishing spot was very expensive or already booked

[@mikehitchen4487]

@@ManAndRod Ok great - just looks ace! I am no good at fly fishing so would like to lure fish as you did in the vid hence the question on the specifics - seems like a lot are focused on fly

I don't want to promote websites on here. Just write to my email 😉

[@rosstracey7924]

Hi there what beat was this on the Tay ?

[@ManAndRod]

Hi. Upper Kinnaird

[@DaiHGowerWales]

Great video of River Tay salmon. Pity it wasn't on the fly. I hope you invest in a bigger longer landing net (or hire one) next time you fish for Salmon. I think your method of fishing by spinning, plus the poor landing and handling technique displayed towards these increasingly rare fish let's you down which is a pity. Best wishes.

[@ManAndRod]

Thanks 🤝 i don't do fly fishing. Yet 😅 living and learning, somewhere need to start. That was firs our salmon fishing ever. Very far for me, hard to find time. Good angling and handling coming with experience which in salmon fishing i have very little. But I'll do my best to fix it 🤝🎣

[@tomasskliutas518]

Hi guys can you tell me please the price for fishing in that river?

[@ManAndRod]

Hi man 🤝 this river has many different prices, every stretch is owned by different people and they're charging different prices. This particular part of the river cost about 50£ per day if i remember right

[@tomasskliutas518]

@@ManAndRod nice. Did you fished other parts of this river? I'm planing to go next year and never fished in scotland so trying to collect as meny info as I can

[@ManAndRod]

I tried few places, the ones which cost around 50£ per day as some places goes up to 250£ per day. Last year was wery warm and no rain. Been there fishing few times but no luck for me

[@tomasskliutas518]

@@ManAndRod looks like this year will be dry as well

[@ManAndRod]

Could be. Last year i fished for salmon in September due to my holidays. And on October i had no time. But yeah, last year October was much better for salmon fishing. Could be similar this year

[@jamesmc2910]

What beat were you fishing on the Tay

[@ManAndRod]

For some reason fishing guide asked not to tell exactly location. Sorry If You want, write to my email, I'll answer Your questions

[@shootincoyotes]

In Russia the fish catch you.

[@ManAndRod]

Yeah, I seen some guys were fishing king salmon in Kamchatka. Looked like best place in World for catching salmon Maybe one day 😁🎣🎣🎣

[@jaddy540]

Azzole at 15: rubbed all the protective slime off the fish, after having the fish out of water for too long to take photos.

[@ManAndRod]

We had it out of water for minimum time. But I know what You mean, next time we will do better.
