As I'm from Northern Ireland we'll never meet. And man, I appreciate your videos. I grew up beside a river like the one in this video. Just no where near as clean. Caught loads of small wild brown trout and many a freezing. Happy happy childhood.

I would not be where I am without your videos. Your top shelf hopper and perdigon dropper were money. My wife scored with the Dorsey indicator above a perdigon. Hope to run across you again on a stream. Thanks again.

heck i am old but i have caught so many when i did not use a marker at the end of the run or sometime before when jerking it back to cast... love it still... dang that place needs to be thined out bad!!!! I am a great trout browner took me 21 years to master trout cooking and one of the best ways involves a microwave 1 to 2 minutes on each side and it is just like it was cooked in a resturant!! I know you already know this but find some swift water with some rocks with soft water spots behind them where the bigger trout lay and run your earplug sideways and in the swift the line loops so you have to make a larger jerking motion but the sidewaysmarker will set the hook most of the time if you feed it going downstream a little slower than a free spool ( sorry an open face term) Thank you!!

For example this was maybe 5 weeks of a 9 week trip with roughly 50 vids. I titled it for my regular viewers who often ask for more info on which flies I recommend so they knew it included that info as well as the lifestyle/vlog stuff. Hope that explains my channel and the vids I share. Got a bunch of dedicated how to, tips, walk thru and gear reviews on my channel also.
