Hi Rob long time no see r you OK or just busy with life ?

which makita is that for taking off the wheel? want to buy that so bad

What temp and time to clean it in the ultrasonic please due I am new for the tool?

Hi Rob, just checking in to see if all is ok? Have you had chance to get out for some of the early fish on our rivers in the NE? So sorry to hear the news about Karla ... stay strong pal.

Nice water that for daytime sea trouting .plenty of colour and faster the better, i usually stick to stoats tail tubes in various sizes as I've stateted before, sedburgh anglers stretch on the lune is full of um at the moment. And just like salmon don't strike ,let em take line ,as little resistance as possible on the line .

Sunray shadow is fun eh, i have not had success but try that or hitch flies, just for something different when i get bored. I haved had some action using tiny hitch flies up north. Great when the river is low, early in the morning , first thing through the pool i mean, great vids as always 👍

I have a 15' Zenith- it is a cannon...

Fantastic day, well done mate. Must admit I was shouting at you to walk back to the bank to net it, then I saw the size of the net!😂 New net and possibly a new reel....the Oracle reel sounded like a metal grinder.😂

Love your content ! Making me want to pack my stuff and head out for a trip. Nice sea trout, lovely rivers, great banter. Tight lines 🙌

Quality fishing mate enjoyed the video look forward to watching more. Tight lines bud

Bad luck with the salmon you lost. Boleside was the first Tweed beat I fished in May 2005. What a 3 days I had. First morning I had a 10lb bar of silver from the Meetings....the fish took alongside the old bridge foundation you can see in the tail. Next evening I had one from Glenmayne. The river was fairly low and the final afternoon I was on the pool you fished first , the one with the corrugated steel groyne on the far bank. The pool didn't look much in the low water, but there was a deep backwater downstream of the groyne, with a very fast flow down the left hand side. I waded right across the river so I was about 10 yards upstream of the groyne, and only about 10 yards off the left bank. I had a 15' type 6 very fast tip with a Templedog on a 1" copper tube. Casting almost straight downstream into the backwater, and letting the fly sink and the current bring the line around slowly, I caught 3 salmon from that spot. I was over the moon and the ghillie, Nigel Fell, was astounded. What an introduction to the Tweed!!

Nice sea trout !! Well in

I think the ghillies like it as it rests the river. It is frustrating though. Nice vid as always 👌

Is it an unwritten law that fisherfolk must have GSDs? A few years back I used to frequently take a long walk between neighbouring towns, along a river towpath, and it was rare not to, at some point, be backed up against a hedge, threatened by an agitated GSD belonging to a fisherman...always the usual black-and-brown coat. One day I accidentally discovered a (potentially deadly) form of dog kryptonite - GSDs think they like cider.

Defo stick a muddler on the dropper. Something like a teal blue and silver on the point. Dibble the muddler as it swings round

This is a great video. Is the footbridge just after the Alston garage on the way out of Alston ? Did you then head downstream ? How did you fish the other bank please ? Much appreciated and well done again keep the vids coming

Get a McLean salmon/sea trout net.

Rob how do I contact you without UA-cam removing my email or number ? The waters going up the now hard to tell how big it’s going to get but it’s wild here the now man

I do/did a lot of "tight line" (can't call it "Euro" when it's really an evolution of Joe Humphrey's nymphing style) nymphing. It kind of becomes addictive, for no other reason than you catch a lot of fish, lol. From what I gather, it looks like you got it because honestly, there's not much to it. The fish was beautiful. I fish NY/VT/MA (all, great places for this kind of fishing) and if I ever make it to your country, would like to try it for grayling.

Greetings from the U.S! I've subscribing to your channel for some time and really enjoy it. I particularly like seeing your dog and the time you take on the rivers you fish to stop and enjoy, and describe your fine lunch. The viewer gets the impression that you're enjoying yourself out there, making the most out of every day on the water.

Missing your vids Rob, hope all is well with you and Karla.

I got my Transit Mk7 T350 for free and I paid too much for it.

Great wee film as ever 👍🏻🐟

Suggestion: If you want or intend to net a Salmon, get a Salmon net rather than a Trout net. Bending fish in a net,,,, bad practice. Kudos like your videos

Sometimes on the Dee,especially with 3ft on,it pays to fish the inside 3rd,weve all lost our casting action,and going shorter can help this,cracking bit of water,like your outfit.

Grand to watch, I love buzzer fishing for rainbows. That last fish made me giggle ... you can tell that you're a salmon man when you tried to grip the fish at it's wrist 🤣 I've driven past the signs for Sweethope many many times on my way for stalking in the Borders... think I'll have to pack my gear and make a detour! I've also started my quest for my first salmon (must be on the fly)....🤞🤞🤞

Watched a few of your videos,, on the one you did on the upper Findhorn you said something along the lines your a bit of a green horn. Best advice,,, instead of running around from river to river get to know one, each river,,,beat and pool is different,, one's I like are the cheap as chips one's,,, river Lossiemouth,,,60 quid a season. And you never seen anyone on it, great little river. Nairn was 150, and both had miles to go at. Moved back down recently and back on the liddle water ,great little river too. One observation,, to long a line. Especially on the smaller rivers.. straight across ,,and down fast and into there faces,,,o and very light hold of the line for those tiny pluckes that develop, no resistance. And flys ,keep it simple my old pal on the nairn Gordon rennie only ever fished allys had a million fish to em. My favourite is silver stoats tubes mainly,, good for both sea trout and salmon.

If it had been me fishing, I’d have tied on a Stoat’s Tail….and still caught naff all! As the saying goes,”Each cast brings you one cast closer to your next fish.” Tight lines to you!

One word for early Findhorn,,darnaway. Like the bottom beats of the spey they run through and start to show in May. Used to fish nairn for years(excellent once you have the key) now back down south and fishin lune sea trout and occasionally liddle water(vastly underrated and under fished,,,,,,excellent.

Jesus 🥱

Dredging the bottom with.... a floating line and 5 ft polyleader.! Sinking line required. They go out better in a wind and actually slow the swing. Mastering the sunk line will be a revelation for you in big water early season. I use the michael evans integrated short headed lines for sinking line work. The running line floats so think of it as a 40 odd ft sink tip.! I use the meduum sink a lot and often a 10ft odd fast tip on that. Ideally put a big aerial mend in on cast in order to get it to sink then when you actually start to fish the swing its dug in and swings slower with more control. I use a really slow retrieve unless the current really pulls. Its really rewarding. I only really use floaters wi tips in shallow riffles after april /may or when wanting to whizz it broadside thru lies with a belly. Ill often cast a heavy tip square let it sink to the required depth then tighten up and fish it across fairly quick but like to feel the tip dig in. Back when there was plenty of fish to easily enable comparison of techniques most folk used a sinker when the water was big fast and cold. After chucking a full sinker like a wetcell 2 or3 theyd make the change to a floater when it was warm and fish were cavorting in the lies. Or get yer inty working. Try it with a tip. These modern rods could chuck a 4 oz lead ! Theres so much more to salmon fishing than chuckin downstream wi a flioater and lettin g the current dictate speed and depth. You can dictate it! Sorry to go on but i feel when watching most of these vids esp in spring that folk are only scratching the surface. It encourages thinking about covering potential lies not just the water too.

Come on you Rushdies! Salmon Rushdie.

Good plan to mainly concentrate locally. Building up a wealth of knowledge takes time. Its nice to have holiday fishing but if you actually want to catch fish like a local fish locally lol. I fish the Yorkshire Ouse/ Ure for em and know lies up and down the river now. Apart from kipper fishing the best of it is over by July as its what Hugh Falkus would have described as a "big spring run river". Ideally id move onto another river from June/july onwards that has runs of fish in summer and back end.

Addict behaviour! Love it pal. Like most pleasurable activities salmon fishing can lead to potentially addictive levels of dopamine in the brain! I guess its better than smoking crxck tho!

I made my stick from a bit of wood, hazel. Wrapped lead round bottom, covered lead in tape, added a rubber cap off a walkin stick. I used quite a stiff thick rope for the carryin strap. The lower knott attachent to the stick could move up and down the stick if needed which made the stick very user friendly whilst wading. Its hard to explain but it worked very well. I dont like the banging of metal on the river bed. The best nets are those maclean salmon nets i think. Sadly im too skint to buy one lol. Most nets are too small if you are hoping to catch big salmon. Trying to get a twenty pounder in a standard salmon guy net whilst usin a big rod is stressful in my exerience. Tight lines matey.

Epic bro. And good that you are bringing up the decline in salmon. Salmon farming really needs to be made an issue. Many folk think farmed salmon is a healthy green alternative to meat rather than an industry thats caused a decline in hundreds of rivers that were once teeming in salmon before cages appeared. Respect from York.

Hi Rob… which beat is this?

Why when you retrieve the line with your left hand do you have the reel set up with the handle on the right? I’m right handed and find it so much easier to have the reel handle on the left.

Do you still have the navy jacket? Where’s it from?

Hi Rob, absultely brilliant videos! Looking to do some salmon fishing maybe late August, Sept or Oct on on of the Tynes? Would love your advice for a once a year Salmon fisherman..

Great video and again full marks for persistence, just one of those days of fish showing but not in a taking mood!! thanks for sharing!

Fantastic..... lovely, congratulations...hooked right in at your bank!! Well done. Love your persistence! Thanks

Excellent, really enjoyed this and what a belter of a Sea Trout, congratulations and thanks for producing & sharing

New to the channel but it’s made in heaven for me - fishing and cooking are my favourite things, in that order! Need to find your food. Thanks for a great video Jill R, NE fly fisher.

10/10 for perseverance!! Boleside is a lovely beat as you say. Yes we definitely are a perverse lot - sickness, travelling miles, downstream winds lol. Well done on that first fish - a wee Grilse not ST. Whilst it makes no sense to say but you 'deserved' a second fish. Great video! Thanks for producing and sharing! See you on the water.

Nice video. Call at Hallington some time for a change. Excellent bank fishing. Some very energetic fish, taking hawthorns at the moment. Jill R

Sorry mate can you explain why you don't cast at around 10.00 to 11.00 (clock face) as if facing at 12 to the opposite bank, your water coverage is massively reduced fishing at around 2.00 (clock face) as you are doing it no?

Hi, a friend of mines watches a guy called, Old dominion trout bum. He said his tutorials on you tube are fantastic and worth watching if you are just starting out.

ever thought of going barbless?
