Trying to Fly Fish A Flooded River....

This year the fly fishing has been lots of lows and not many highs and the constant rains had kept me away from the river. Well I was determined, this was tough, I was exhausted from wading against the river and absolutely soaking wet! But I loved it!!

I've always found your videos entertaining Paul, it all comes from the heart! This video was no exception, I burst out laughing when the trout went through the net, cheers for lightening up my Saturday evening!!

[@WestCountryAngler]

Thanks Davie! I really appreciate that and thanks for watching!

[@markhensel1843]

Thanks for taking us along! I''m about the same as you when it comes the the dry flies - a trout taking a dry is magic to me - I'll continue using them even when I full know it's nymphs that they want.

[@WestCountryAngler]

Cheers Mark, I may have been tempted by using nymphs on my last trip, it's just really tough this year

Well done for catching anything in those conditions on the dry fly Paul. You have discovered why I retired that style net for one with a smaller mesh, the little trout on the Taw kept going through the holes!!

[@WestCountryAngler]

Thanks Chris, it's been a tough year and with the weather turning, I doubt it is going to improve. That net has had me scratching my head as I had to buy a new one this year, the fish are definitely getting smaller! I've just ordered a net with mesh. Thanks for watching Chris

great video buddy, as meatloaf said 1 out of 3 aint bad.

Well done Paul at least you got one to the net, weather been awful here as well with heavy rain every 4/5 days , went to one river yesterday and dam regulates height so wasn't too bad but after 4hrs had just one small brown but today went too new private beat I have gained and although it was half in spate had 4 grayling all about 1lb plus and a single brown about the same all on F fly, best grayling bag ever so you never can tell.

I've only been fly fishing for maybe 7 years but this is certainly the toughest season I've had. Well done on the Grayling!

Wet arse or not well done Paul. Fishing in the south east dire at the moment , water too warm !

[@WestCountryAngler]

We've had constant rain, a bit of sun and now it's gone cool, just not getting the hatches that get the fish looking up. Thanks for watching
