Great video ! Keep them coming 🔥🔥🔥

[@jerseyroyal9427]

Just found your channel and into my bassing. Catching on the fly looks exceptionally brilliant fun. Some nice but dangerous rock formations in your parts there. Well done for getting the big beauty out of that swell. Good luck this year mate.

[@RhysFishes]

Thanks jersey!

[@FISHISLANDTV]

Nice session there bud.. I’m thinking of getting the fly gear ready soon for the bass. Weathers being a bit of a night mare at the moment though.

[@RhysFishes]

Bit tough come autumn. Lures are a better bet 👍

[@badfishingbissanschlagdril3637]

Nice catch😎🎣👍🏼👍🏼

[@RhysFishes]

Thanks for watching!

[@simonpilgrims]

Great video thank you Rhys. As someone that would perhaps like to try this it would be good to have little comment on technical approach. Love your videos. Many thanks.

[@noblestsavage1742]

Sut mae Rhys, I’m from west wales myself and spent a lot of time fishing for bass in west and South Wales. Now I find myself in Edinburgh with virtually no bass to be found. Plenty of sea trout though to similar techniques and marks . Also plenty of pike to be had on the fly in the fresh waters too. 😊🤘

[@RhysFishes]

Sut mae Noblest. Some great pike waters up your way there!

[@noblestsavage1742]

@@RhysFishes absolutely, love me some pike!

[@pauljohnsontwonoviceangler6170]

Great Video. Have you done a tutorial on fly fishing for bass? Gear, set up, cleaning etc. Thanks.

[@pauljohnsontwonoviceangler6170]

I am guessing-floating line, 9ft leader of 10 pounds? floating fly or not?

[@RhysFishes]

9wt rod. Intermediate line. 20lb fluoro leader. Baitfish imitation (sinking) 👍

[@pauljohnsontwonoviceangler6170]

@@RhysFishes Thanks. Jackie and I fancy giving it a go here in NE England.

[@mistymorning]

Hi Rhys Great work as usual how's the hyperloop reel holding out the bearings are a bit rumbly in mine but for a cheap reel the drag is really good you can still catch good fish on them. I,m yet to try for a sea bass on the fly but your are inspiring me to have a go. Off trout fishing tomorrow so hoping for an evening rise.

[@RhysFishes]

Thanks. The real is ok and does the job for what we need. Hope you enjoyed the vid. Good luck with the evening rise!

[@Nickprescottwhite]

Brilliant video again. Nice to see something a little different. Caught my record brown on the river today on a dry. 2Lb! Quick question, on a 2 foot deep river how deep would you have your point fly under an indicator?

[@RhysFishes]

Great news Nick, well done! Id generally play around at 2ft and go longer or shorter from there. Its a case of just trial and error but youre obviously doing it right with catching fish!

[@Nickprescottwhite]

Absolutely cracking video just found your channel brilliant editing I’ve just moved to Cornwall and was hoping I could convert my freshwater skills to saltwater your video definitely has encouraged me to try with my old fly set up what flys were you using please liked subbed 😎

[@RhysFishes]

Good luck with it 👌

[@gerboxcymruambyth.7316]

Nice bass there Rhys! I’ve just subscribed, quick question what fly line do you use? Was thinking of buying the airflo cold water 9wt floating line, not sure if should go with the intermediate? Bass on the fly is my mission this year as well.👍

[@RhysFishes]

Thank Ger! Go with the intermediate!

[@gerboxcymruambyth.7316]

Ok thanks for that Rhys👍 keep up the quality videos mate, can’t wait now.

Cracking fishing mate. Was the big bass on a Labrax Snax?

[@RhysFishes]

Thanks! Yes👍

[@HaplessPlugger]

Just WOW! I fish round this shoreline myself and haven't even seen such fine bass, let alone caught them. Not jealous at all. Well done, brilliant stuff

You should be saying "amateur don't try this at home!" Excellent video but pushing your luck on the safety front!

[@Karkawry1970]

Well done on the captures. But further, congratulations for obscuring any potential landmarks. I see video after video, post after post online, Facebook and Instagram etc, where (usually people new to the sport) don't think twice about obscuring any giveaways of their location. As the 'sport' grows it's getting worse, to the point i get so frustrated that I have left all social media. It's def a double edged sword! Tight lines for 2021 and beyond....

Nice one Rhys. Seems we share the same passion. Just subscribed, check out my channel? Cheers. Chris.
