This is what the sport is all about , helping out the youngsters. Well done buddy. Another great video. 👍🏻

[@RhysFishes]

Thanks Marc!

Excellent video Rhys and the smile on that young lads face is what fishing is all about. 👌

Many thanks David

@@RhysFishes You were being spoken about today Rhys, my friends and I were fishing Burnhouse Lochan and the lassie that runs it was saying that she was in the Scottish ladies team and they're going to be fishing in Wales. I said that she should watch your videos for some tips but you beat me to it, having already fished Burnhouse ! Anyway what was said about you was all good and really looking forward to your Burnhouse video, you seemingly did better than we did 👍

@@davidfarley1913 That's very kind David, thank you.

I watched your videos and went back to fly fishing after a long lay off - I bought your fly box and caught my lakes record fish at 16.5lb on your cat bug light green - only went there 2 times, the locals were not happy ! Cheers Rhys

[@RhysFishes]

That's excellent. Well done on the big fish! 🎣

[@nickbegg1863]

Lochter is my local fishery. Glad you enjoyed your day and it’s great to hear all the positive things you said about it (and the tips will be handy 😂).

[@RhysFishes]

You're a lucky man Nick!

[@alistairlawrie6831]

Excellent videos! Probably the best videos online and definitely the best for those who fish in the UK. One wee suggestion from a long time fly fish who is still clueless, when you mention a fly add an image of it in a wee box on screen as there are a lot of us who are still clueless about the names of the 1000s of flys out there. Thank you so much for sharing your high quality knowledge with us all it's greatly appreciated.

[@RhysFishes]

Can certainly do this for future videos. Thanks for the kind feedback Alistair

[@mikejames663]

Great fishing there chaps, catching on a variety of methods, lovely fishery.

Awesome video guys. This is my local fishery and I’m delighted to see it getting the praise it deserves. I’d be there more often if the local river wasn’t so good!

[@waynedavies5569]

Hi Rhys & Jeremy, Really enjoyed this video, particularly the way you select your tactics and set-ups on each rod. Each method has its own merits… the important thing is knowing how to fish the flies you’ve chosen. You guys nailed this session, as you said; It’s what spring fishing is all about. Thanks for sharing, best regards, Wayne 😀👍

[@RhysFishes]

Glad it was helpful Wayne. Tightlines for the rest of your season

Another great video Rhys, full of great tips. I love the craic between you and your Dad, reminds me of me and my father when we used to clay shoot together. Can I ask, would you be able to do a video explaining the different makes and types of fluorocarbon you use and why. I only use airflo, so it would be interesting to see your view on this.

I'd say it's not comorant damage but the resident Osprey. Pretty sure you were at loch Insch same day as we were there! It was a tough day.

[@RhysFishes]

That’s a very good point and you’re probably right.

I find your videos both inspirational and frightening - that latter for both of your abilities to catch - the logic always makes sense but the sill level is well beyond me - thanks as ever for great content!

Hi Rhys great video as always but could I ask would there be any chance you could do a short video on your rod holder I’ve seen them on Amazon and eBay but I was going to fix one to my box for boat fishing but i see from this video your carrying it round the bank I love to see how it’s made up please Kind regards Adam 👍

It’s worth buying one from Knitsley mill fisheries Adam. We’ve made our own in the past but none come close to The craftsmanship and design of this one.

[@ballzblue22]

Excellent video as usual. You mentioned using a New Haylie floating line. I cant find anything about these lines on line. Are they only purchased at the fishery?

[@RhysFishes]

They are but they are made abroad so are probably solt under a different name. George usually gets them in batches and will add your name to the list if you contact him

[@sammellor605]

Hi Rhys, love your videos, I have picked up a lot of good info to improve my fishing. I will put them into practice as soon as I get chance to get on the lakeside. One question mate, can yo give me any details on your rod holder, the white plastic one that holds three rods. I would love to make one as it looks extremely useful at keeping your rods safe on the ground and would help keep the lines from tangling. Hope you can help me. All the best, and looking forward to more videos

[@TheSlowMoTeens]

Another class video mate. What nylon/gut are you using at the moment? Trying to find a decent one had a few snap’s recently

Great video Rhys. I’m lucky as this fishery is on my door step. Keep up the good work. Also can you tell me where you got your rod caddy from?

[@RhysFishes]

It’s from Knitsley mill fisheries 😊

[@TightLinesNW]

Great video Rhys! Thanks so much for sharing. These longer format videos can get a little tedious but your editing made this one fly by. Here in the States still water fishing is still not super popular, but I love it. I have learned a ton from channels like yours, Lyndsay Simpson, Phil Rowley have taught me so much! I use a lot of "U.K." methods with good success. Tight Lines!

[@RhysFishes]

I always find it odd how River trout fishing completely dominates stillwater trout fishing in the US. But I guess that leaves more fishing available for you. Glad you found the video beneficial, tightlines 🎣

[@oliversmith3771]

Awesome video mate. I find when straight lining or washing line with three buzzers my floating line sinks at the tip. I I leaving it out there while setting up another rod then the whole think sinks tip first (I'm taking leaving it for about 5 minutes). Does this seam right to you? Its probably my biggest challenge when nymphing

[@RhysFishes]

If you leave it 5 minutes then yes it will do that. Apply some mucilin to the end of the fly line before your start fishing

[@jonmilling703]

Superb. Nothing else to say.

[@RhysFishes]

Many thanks Jon

[@darryldodd8508]

Knitsley mill fishery

[@davidwillacy4796]

Loved the video bud, lots of useful information. When you said you would use a shipman’s in the calm rather than a cul d what is a cul d please? Am I right in thinking that it’s a cdc parachute buzzer. Please forgive my ignorance. Cheers

[@RhysFishes]

That's right David. Any form of CDC pattern I mean generally. Because CDC patterns tend to sit on the surface film rather than in, and on a flat calm this is often the most key factor that differentiates a take from a refusal

[@davidwillacy4796]

Thanks for that bud. Cheers

[@stevengreen6481]

Rhys, what's the reason for dipping your reels in the water.

[@RhysFishes]

Intermediate lines are generally painful to cast and remain dryer than conventional fly lines. So a quick dip at the start avoid this issue

[@stevengreen6481]

Rhys, thanks for the reply, I'll use that wee tip from now on with my intermediate lines.

[@Zenspit]

Nice video! I want to fish in reservoirs with buzzer, how I attach best the flies to the fly line? I nos use a clove knot fly line to 6 lb fluoro where I then tie the flyes. Is there better options for straightlining such as using loops or rings anywhere in th system or tapered pieces of mono before the fluoro? I use intermediate fly line. thanx in advance.

[@RhysFishes]

Attach them via droppers on a three turn water knot. As seen here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2S5eWmuaZ1pj6c

[@Zenspit]

@@RhysFishes Sorry I didnt explain myself well. I m missing the First part of leader construction. You go straight from fly line to 6 LB fluoro without any taper ? How you attach the leader via loop or clove knot?

[@RhysFishes]

@@Zenspit ah ok. So yes, I attach straight through fluorocarbon without any taper. The only time I will taper my leader is for dry fly. Otherwise I don’t need to taper my leader personally. The tippet is attatched to the fly line via a double Davy knot
