Always watch the end of your line when bringing your flies back... drag across and pause before lifting out of the water 👍👍

With the Wolves and Liverpool games being cancelled on Boxing day my plan for a day on the beer and footy was ruined.... didn't want to finish the year with a blank AND losing to the old man so got him out and had a last minute opportunity to rectify things!...maybe?🤷🏼♂️😂

With some furlough time on my hands thought I’d have a go at putting a YT video together as I’ve found that since starting out these types of videos and been very helpful and it’s great watching the takes and how people catch trout. I also wanted to cover various set ups and tactics that you can use and thankfully managed some success on all of them for some decent content👍
Put that rod in the bin and get a fast one
Hi ,great vid. I tried loynton end of august and never had a bite. Not many people there,but those that where didn’t have much luck , I will have to try it again. In your videos can you let us know what flies and methods you are using mate. Also has your tackle box got a seat, and if so what make is it and where can I get one from. Looking forward to more vids, tight lines.
Enjoyed the video mate 👍 i dont live far from Loynton but have never fished there .... done Ellerdine a few times but tend to go to Hurst farm now as its only a five minute drive from home, theres only one pool but a good days fishing can be had, think i need to give Loynton a try now though 😉
Loynton can be hard work at times (like most venues) but nice venue and on site cafe for a bit of brekkie if you choose as well 👍🏻👍🏻 well worth a day there 👍🏻
Nice videos, can't beat a bit of father son rivalry 🎣 Just one point though, when you're planning on releasing the fish, keep them in the water. Taking them out of the water reduces the chances of them surviving. Most fisheries have this as a rule.
Cheers John...its not a rule at the fishery. unfortunately I have very bad knees and cant crouch/kneel down to get to them in the water (getting as bad as the old man!!)... that said, I still do my best to minimise the amount of time they are out the water, keep them in the net and dont handle them (or if I have to I wet my hands first) and make sure they are fully recovered before they swim off 👍
@@fordysfishing1976 sorry, I must have missed you doing it like that in your last few videos.
great video,i reckon you should be checking old mans pockets for trout pellets
🙈😆😆 I know...couldn't believe it when he started getting bite after bite when it had been so difficult everywhere!!😂🙄
50 second video, gosh your spoiling us
Didn't take 4 hours to edit either 👍👍😂
great vid!
Cheers Ethan 👍
Liked and subscribed. Helpful tips. Thanks.
Thanks Paul 👍
Be careful where you put your rod while taking the hook out as I've seen meny people stand on the rod
🙂
great video,good job pops got a fish or it could have been a long ride home
😂 I feared the worst when lost the first one (and his squirmy!!🙈) but thankfully he got one in!!😂🎣
And away
😂😂 can't believe Mortimer n Whitehouse stole that from me!!🤔😉😂
I love the reality of Fordy's videos. There's plenty of videos out there that make it look like you can throw anything out and catch double figures every trip. Most of us struggle sometimes and ending up in trees is part of the fun!! The tips are really good because Ellerdine is always a challenge, that's why we love it.
Thanks for the comment 👍👍 yes... as my dad always says 'thats why they call it fishing and not catching'!!
good video. well worth taking your dad just for the comedy value
Thanks fot the comment 👍👍He's great!!😆 and when he whoops me he really enjoys his day out!!😂...but can be a bit defeatist when things don't go his way 🤷🏼♂️🤦🏼😆
great video,i also have a box of thingymajig flies
Still have no idea what half the flies I have are called!!😂😂
its nice to know that im not the only one who makes them cock ups too.ive been fly fishing since sept and still trying to get the hang of it.ive watched all the same you tube for advice and i have my flies all on mini rigs too.there alot small than yours i can have a 100 rigs in very little space.theres a crowd on ebay that sell them mini rigs 100 for 12.00 the cal lthem eva foam rig winding sea carp.
Nice vid really enjoyed watching and listening tightlines Welsh Dave
Thanks for the comment Welsh Dave 👍👍 tightlines mate
Scrap that noise and I'm sure you'll get more likes and subscribers, other than that it's a good video
Thanks for the feedback 👍Noise has been scrapped on more recent content 🙈👍😂
Enjoyed the video. I usually struggle at Loynton compared to Ellerdine, but it's a nice fishery. I've never used a white squirmy before. After watching this I'll give up a go. Were you fishing it under an indicator?
Hi Paul...yes at around 5-6 feet.... was a bit of a breeze so wasn't totally static and couple of the the takes were after 'mending' the line so giving an occasional pull or twitch may help get their attention 👍👍tight lines 🎣🎣
Great video thanks for sharing but the music when you hook into a fish is annoying, didn't watch it all because of that ,fished Ellerdine a few times now lovely place to fish ,I've struggled on that lake myself 👍🎣🎣tight lines
Thanks for the feedback Paul...sorry about the music!🙈😂 not done many videos and was experimenting with diff ideas...turns out that was a bad one!😂 Marsh has been fishing better recently and had 7 out of there in my latest video... check that one out (there's no music on it!!!) 👍👍🎣🎣🎣
@@fordysfishing1976 cheers I will, i don't mean to offend its just my opinion some people might like it, just not me I like to hear the reel and the angler talking about what the fish is doing taking line ,going into the reeds etc as I say just my opinion ,I literally spend loads of time watching videos ,when im not out fishing of course 😀
@@paulcoverley4115 no offence...I welcome the feedback...I also watch alot of content and personally lose interest when someone's playing a fish for 2 mins or so and was trying to 'jazz' it up but think the general consensus is that people like watching it and listening to the comments so think that's the way forward 👍👍👍
Looks like you hit the fishery at the right time......and away lol 😂
Deffo did!!...last 2 visits sum up fishing!! A blank then 8 fish!!🙈😂😂
Flat Calm conditions are always tricky
Nightmare mate...changed flies, moved around...ran out of ideas in the end!! Just one of those days 🙈😂👍
I’ve had days of flat calm conditions here, caught a few on chamois under a bung and apps blood worm with long pause retrieves
@@fireblaster9961 yeah, it can be tough I the calm, especially if bright. V slow or static works best especially if the water is coloured.
Another good video Richard. I think it's great to produce videos as an angler relatively new to flyfishing. I'm sure other new anglers can follow your journey and learn a lot. This time of year, if you do want to target the wiser fish on naturals it generally pays to fish them at the slightly warmer time of day. Around 1pm onward. Gold head hares ear and pheasant tail nymphs score well. Thank you again for an honest, entertaining video 👍
Cheers for the feedback and positive comments 👍 will have to Google to see what a hares ear and pheasant tail nymph looks like!!🙈😂🤷🏼♂️
Think you need a attractor fly on.....personally if I don’t see any fish topping out I wouldn’t bother with naturals.....buzzers and a blob always works for me
Do use blobs most times tbf but wanted to give straightlining and washing lines a go with the 'nasty' stuff 😂 blobs n worms will be back on the rods tomorrow!!👍👍
When I get to the water I don’t set up any flies and leaders, look to see what the fish are doing and what they want. I don’t think it’s good thinking to assume I’m going to catch only on naturals, fish for what they want at the time….keep up the videos there getting better lol 😂
@@fireblaster9961 👍👍👍...no music this time!!🤷🏼♂️😂
Arrrrrr the music
I know mate...just trying diff ways... think watching a fish splash about for a minute or so gets a bit mundane so was trying to 'jazz' it up a bit!!🤷🏼♂️ may stick to juts speeding it up 👍👍😂
When you said the fish where under the surface I would switched to a washing line set up immediately
Did try the washing line tbf but no joy... though still learning a lot especially in relation to fishing the naturals 👍
Personally I never start with the bung if I’m early on the bank. I always start with the lures and slowly adjust to conditions.
I try to vary it myself...started on the apps last and the lure before that... think the benefit to starting with the bung is if fishing the margins there's less casting and disturbance on the water so won't spook the fish close in as much?🤷🏼♂️
Great video Richard. Liked the "bostin" breakfast too. 👍
Cheers Darren👍 thanks for the comment...the brekkies always bang on there 👍👍😋😋
Nice vid mate ... enjoyed that .. Still haven't had a chance to fish Ellerdine .. its on the list !
Cheers mate...Ellerdine well worth a visit but obvs bit of a journey from Essex!!...chigborough looks a nice venue Tbf 👍👍
