    Awesome video, I took a break from fishing in 2023, more golf and shooting. I now realise I’m a much better fisherman than a golfer 😂 Spent my whole day watching your fishing videos. Superb commentary from a real artist. Keep them coming Davie, you are a real class act.

    Firstly I love to see the comments of joy from people that can't get out fishing, you're doing a wonderful thing with these video's. Secondly I'm fully invested in you catching a salmon on video for us all, the fish of 10,000 casts, it will be a glorious day for us all!

    Hi Davie, I fully appreciate these trips out flyfishing with you, I am disabled now and unable to get out of my home safely or to get out fishing regrettably these days so fully appreciate all these trips you make and post, great fishing and what a totally superbly coloured Brown to finish the day, as an artist now you couldn't it always stuns me to see such wonderful buttery colours up with so many spots, what a stunning fish. certainly entertaining viewing, Well done, and thank you

      Hi Vinny,
      I'm glad you enjoy the videos and when I go out I will think about you and many others that can't get down to the water so it makes me feel like I am certainly not alone when I 'm walking along and fishing the streams and pools..It was a lovely brown trout and the colours were amazing so thank you for the kind words, and until next time..
      All the very best Davie..

    The pool at 33:14 looks very good. Maybe a nymph and a wet weighted and closer to the slow water nearer the bottom?

    The fourth of August was the Queen mothers birthday another famous salmon fisher it just happens to be mine as well but I was not as fortunate to spend it on the river although watching you on another of your videos and listening to you describing what you are doing more than makes up for it . Please keep up your filming and constructive instruction it’s nearly as good as being there Thank you once again

      Thanks so much for replying Davie, I will look into that. We first met at Glasgow Angling Centre when you were giving a tying demo. You gave my young lad the fly you tied and he still has it in pride of place in his bedroom. You are one of life's gentlemen.

    Hi Davie. What size of salmon could the 7/8 microspey handle if you don’t mind me asking. Would it be able to handle big fish if Lady Luck was smiling on you? Thanks for the brilliant videos

    Just out of curiosity, do you use any other method when salmon fishing or just strictly fly fishing?

      Hi @oscarwmcg7382,
      I could fish other methods if I want though I like to fish the fly but I have to be honest there's very few salmon in our waters now..

    Hi Davie, i was just wondering if the water flow and depth on the River Doon were steady and consistent or are there times when the flow is cut back and the water level is down?
    It looks great in your videos and i have often wondered about the flow and depth being consistent.
    Are there any seasonal flooding or drout issues there?
    Love your video's... Fish On

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Рік тому +1

      Morning David,
      The Doon does drop below a certain level as it's controlled by the hydro-electric company coming from Loch Doon and by law to do this. It also rises and falls with the rain like any other water as well though never below a set level like you see me fishing most of the time so drought never affects it even heat to a point as the water keeps cool coming from the loch..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..
      All the very best Davie

    Enjoyed your trip on the Doon. The fast ripply section reminded me of parts i fish on the Derbyshire Derwent, where i get frowned on for down stream nymphing! I find it to be a most productive method, although like you lots of bumps. Do you think its harder to get a good hook hold with this method?
    Cheers Paul

    You really need to come and fish New Zealand waters Davie. We call a 10 pounder a "nice fish". Those minnows you catch over there are hilarious! But I love everything you do and have learned so much from watching your video's mate. Cheers for all your dedication to the best sport on the planet!
