- Join me on a journey to my local river, the River Wandle, which winds through the heart of southeast London. In this episode, I shed light on the pressing issues of river pollution and the critical importance of conservation. Dive into "Trout and Tribulations" with me! Together, we can make a significant impact in the fight for cleaner, healthier rivers.

Lovely video from a lovely lady thanks for the time and effort of the upload
Yo the audio track is so legit! Love the visuals and edits. Informative with good humor!
The best video I’ve seen showing our local river. Brilliant job with highlighting the conservation work too, Amie 👏🏻. Always look forward to your entertaining and beautifully filmed vlogs.
Thanks so much 😊
Why is it still allowed to be so badly polluted...? 😭
This's gotta be your best yet, Amie. Loved the bit of history and context in the beginning/throughout. Handy for somebody on the other side of the world.
Brilliant video as always
😆 and what a trout. Great seeing the conservation side of what is going on on your local river well done to all those involved 👍
Very handsome brown trout. Amazing how adaptable and resilient trout really are. Wonderful fish.
philomena cunk vibes and a new ringtone. "brown trooout". thanks
The tying bit was first class 😂
yeah its technical and I don't expect everyone to understand but I tried my best to (for lack of a better word) dumb it down.
This totally made my morning and really gives me inspiration for future conservation efforts of my own
Lovely video. What a gorgeous first fish, a good size and very well landed. I've fished for trout for over 60 years, mostly in Highland Scotland, Wales, Shropshire and Herefordshire. Recently, I'm receiving the distinct impression brown trout are growing larger and thriving in urban rivers better than rural rivers. Think on the Wye and chicken farms, whilst more time and investment is going into improving urban than preserving rural environments because that's where most voters are. Whatever, I'd love to have a day on the Wandle with traditional nymphs, emergers and dries. London, however, is more alien to me than the rivers of Assynt, Angus and Gwynedd. Is there a local guide to the different beats? BTW... Do remember that the UK record salmon (+64lbs) was caught in 1922 by a woman, Georgina Ballantine. Perhaps they've always been a bit less inclined to sexism in fly-fishing circles in Perthshire than in London. The Picts (the traditional inhabitants of north eastern Scotland) were, according to Bede, very much a matrilineal society.
Amie you are a breath of fresh air - well except for the end bit x
Award winning video.. love it.
You're a true inspiration
So happy you are back. ❤
Great video. Love the Wandle fished it in the 90's. 🐟
Well done Amie! A true conservationist!
Thanks as always great work
I don't fly fish, I have no idea what's going on but I'm here. I'm ready. I'm loving it. KEEP IT UP LASS❤
That was fun! Love the tying tutorial. hahaha...Greetings from Canada.
This is why we have at least 25 "one last casts". Love the open-top hat and the tying demo ❤❤
Nice to see other countries interested in conservation of the fishing waterways! Where I live in New York, some streams are much cleaner than even 40 years before, healthier fish populations
Great video Amy 👍
You're getting good at this fly fishing lark! 👌👌👌
Like the style love you know your stuff lovely fish and very good casting !!!!
You are the best ever. I love you and your videos. Ron/Sweden
Brilliant to see you bk on my screen love your content as you do t take yourself to serious and that's what life about just enjoying your hobby
thats what its about, tight lines
Great video of a stunning little river👏
Thank you! Awareness is averything.
Good to see you back !!
Wonderful, 🐟what a lovely fish, as you say so buttery great to see you back👍👍Splendid, History section, Loved the fly too😂🙂
we need more vlogs Amie content always brilliant thanks
Wonderful video - been taken on the Wandle for a couple of coarse sessions by a mate and was stunned by the quality and variety of fish in there. Now I’m in my first season of fly fishing I’m due to have a session next week having been on other cracking little rivers like the Len, Darent and Cray. They are waters many would walk past and ignore but more fool them.
Wow I just bumbed into your channel and what a gem did I find! Great combination of fishing, facts and humor! Instant sub 👍
Love your enthusiasm and the way you tell a story. Informative, funny and cinematic all in one.
The fish song was epic haha
Great video 😀
I don't know why I haven't come across your videos before but this is awesome ....nice bit of education and some laughs :) ........"just wrap that around, then wrap this around" .....well funny, I'm off to watch some more !
Super angling skills and video
Great one kidda
Just found this channel a lot of work went into this and you dont take it mega seriously😂
thank you
Great stuff, particularly the fly tying part which gave me a good laugh…oh and the Brown Trout song. Your style reminds me of one of the anglers from Screaming Reels on C4 many years ago. Keep it up.
Excellent video it's vitally important we look after our water ways and the life within them, as well as polution
Your personality is refreshing from the normal stuck up fly fishermen/women I tend to see lately! (:
Brilliant! You should be on the telly.
This is one of the best fly-fishing videos I've ever seen.
You could easily have your own tv show you legend! 😂😂
Great video Amie, looking forward to the next one 🎣 🙂
Superb, as always 🎣👏😎❤️
Great vid. Lovely casting technique.
Great Video, I was blown away by how beautiful this River is around Hackbridge…
Lovely to see you again. Probably your best so far. Tight lines.
Your swedish friend😊
Another brilliant a clever video. Look forward to the next one😊
Another great video , the effort shows and they are hilarious
this is the first video of yours I've watched and its giving crazy teacher vibes but a load of fun 😂
Brilliant stuff as always Amie…it’s a wrap!
Wow this was an amazing video, thanks for all the hard work! Keep it up
That song!!! Banger.
Love this more please 😊
We need people like dr jack hogan or we r f**ked
yes we do, he is a local Gem.
Amazing work, thank you for sharing
we're the hell have you been. FROM Oklahoma. missed you.
Great stuff. Wish there were more like you. Love your sense of humour
What a fantastic upload, a breath of fresh air, well I say fresh air but maybe a fart or two 😂. The AT will definitely benefit having you onboard. Loved the dressing up as a man 😂😂. Hopefully in the next 5yrs we all de a great change in our waterways
I don’t imagine I’m very well liked at the AT lol I declined Ambassadorship for various reasons lack of time being the main one, I basically said if you want anything from me pay me because I had no time to dilly dally back then to benefit others tokenism but, now times moved on and I’ve seen a change from the AT (they acknowledge pride month on there website and other important cultural events) that wasn’t there before I would consider it.
@@amieflyfish2577 fair play, you can’t please everyone matey but for those you do it’s worth it I’m sure. Keep being you 👍
Great stuff Amie, excellent info and wonderfully presented. The song and sketch are brilliant. Cheers and tight lines
Well done on landing that big brown, definitely a pro move. Hopefully the river improves.
Enjoyed that!
Just found your channel one of the most unique UA-cam channels out there. Cheers
Great video as usual! Thanks for posting!
I have never subscribed so hard to a fishing channel. Brilliant content, fantastic sense of humor.
Now that Amie is good for the soul.A refeshing change..well done.
Very good video 👏🏻🎣
Fantastic 😊
Nice little trout song Amie! Love your video!
Beautiful fish, excellent video.
Loved it, keep up the good work.
Absolutely great video !!! ****
Thank you very much for sharing😅
That's was great! A nice twist in a saturated space. Looking forward to the next installment.
What a fantastic video, urban trouting at it's best. Thanks for sharing Amie
Spent a wonderful day walking the length of the Wandle with the late great Will Tall some years ago. It’s a magical little river with a lot of surprises x
Will was one of the original wandle piscators, made a big difference to the wandle.
about ten videos all in one ace as always thank for bothering all the best
this was great ! very well done and it was good that you went into the conservation side as well as fly tying and all under 16min new sub
Love the hat! Thought it had a squirrel on it at first but it’s your hair! Awesome video
Fantastic video i love the River Wandle probably because it's name was originally the Vandal so it holds a special place in my heart
Stunning fish Amie, that thoroughly deserved to be serenaded by your lovely wee song! 😍
Love your videos, keep on filming, how your not on TV with your own show is a mystery, that's a beautiful brownie by the way 👍🏻 what was your set up? Rod ,reel, line, tippet, fly?
I got a Redington classic trout rod 8ft 4wt and 3lb tippet.
It's a wrap! Lovely.
Best urban river fly fishing video we have seen!
Respect from Tokyo who also use very long net popping brown trouts in who are so brown
Smashing video, really enjoyed it 👏😊
We need to start a petition to get Amie presenting documentaries on the Beeb
start the petition lol
Thanks, Amie, informative and refreshingly entertaining video. Reminds me of a program in the late 80s called "screaming reels" channel 4. Nice casting action and a natural presenter to boot.😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very creative video. I like😊❤
Brilliant! Love the focus on how we all should do our part to help bringing these waters back to good condition- even by simply picking up litter when we are out there.
Btw. I see we use similar techniques tying flies- lots of wrapping round.
Cheers from Denmark.
How did I got here and why is it so entertaining? Such a lovely energy here!
Maybe I’ve just got a rubbish feed but this is THE best UK fishing video I’ve seen posted on UA-cam. Well done! As an ex croydonian, this was so meaningful and enjoyable to watch. You should have sent a link to this in your open letter to London Fly Fishers 😂. Live between Bristol and Bath now but you’re very welcome to a guest ticket if you’re ever wanting to wet a line in the Somerset/Dorchester.
Please share!
Instagram message me and we’ll chuck a line in
