Hi Cameron It's a new season and I am glad to meet up with you again. Two splendid salmon for the start of the season, and what an interesting fly from my namesake Brian. Let us hope the season will be better than last year, as salmon were not in abundance as preaviuse years. I look forward to seeing more good videos through out the season
Hi Brian, great to hear from you again, I couldn't agree more about Brian's fly pattern and it obviously goes without saying that it is very effective with Atlantic salmon, here in Scotland. I too look forward to making more fishy videos and with a bit of luck, it may even happen!
Hey Mike, it’s good to be back but I’m a month earlier than usual and the weather conditions are reminding me of that very point 🥶 When will you be back out on the river?
@@CameronChapman My season starts on the 22nd of June...I have prime waters for a total of 8 days on the Restigouche river in New Brunswick...can't wait!!!
Great video and also excellent to see you excited to see and land a fish for another angler. Catching a salmon really is something to be shared and celebrated. 👍🏼
Interesting single hook rig.. and great to see 2024 springers. SafeWading and best endeavours for the 3rd. from south of the border. If I caught one on the Tweed this next week it would be wonderful) Simon Artley Manchester
@@CameronChapman Lees at Coldstream. Dont think river will be fit..5 foot on the guage at present..and knowing Tweed the colour of chocolate. Might have a chance on a local tributary..Whitadder They like a black silver and yellow in spring as well..
Good to see salmon anglers twigging what lure anglers did a while back with the bigger single hooks,better hook up to landing ratio and easier unhooking.
It certainly is Christian but it is also the south bank of the Caledonian canal…. The presence of the weir enabled the height of Loch Ness to be raised by eight feet, over its entire 26mile length. Its construction was overseen by Thomas Telford and it was completed in 1822. I think every lucky angler has their own favourite Hardy rod and mine is actually the Hardy favourite that I bought second hand, nearly 30 years ago!
And yes I do love Hardy I done a day's casting a few weeks back with Simon Gawesworth. Fantastic day and a gentleman and great craic. Half tempted to pick up a sage after seeing Simon using but at the end of the day he's a master caster he made my zenith sing when using it.
Love it, something different,,,,,,what’s thar Shirl? No you don’t need these made,,,,,errrr cammie is only joking ,, yellow is a spring colour,,,too cold up north this time of year for you,,,what? Different colours…..errrr…..Cammie 😢HELP!!!
Hey Steve, if I told you what the release was shot on, you simply wouldn't believe me! Suffice to say that I shoot the releases on 'slow motion', which runs at 60fps instead of the 30 fps with normal video recording. Therefore the higher frame rate produces a clearer and far brighter image. I hope that all makes sense.
@@CameronChapman yes i understand,something i will be trying myself,You have a fantastic channel,just tried a Spey rod for the first time today,so will be checking out your videos for more tips.Thanks for the quick reply.Steve.
@@stevesnaps1 delighted to hear that you’ve tried using a Spey rod. Moving forward, if you think I can offer you advice, just message me and I’ll do my best.
Thanks it's a big learning curve from Tenkara and small stream fishing,but injoyed my first go today.And I'm sure it will bring more fish to the net as the season progresses. Cheers Steve.

2 Nice fish well done 👍
Cheers Gary, much appreciated 🙏❤️👍🏻
That's some lenght of a weir. Great fishing you had I see the Zenith done the business. Probably my favourite rod. Prefer it over my 2 zephrus"

😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣 You're on your own with this one Steve and I for one really cannot wait to see how your 'summer' variations turn out 😇😉
Clonker . Years since I have seen a waddington fly
I couldn't agree more. Yup, and there must be hundreds of thousands of them, lying in fly boxes, up and down the length and breadth of the country!
I think the price has gone up to £10 for that fly!
I think you may be right Paul 😄
Dream team u 2 well ✔️ done
Many thanks for your kindness Gary, much appreciated.
Great video 2 cracking fish.The footage of the release is quality,What are your go pro setting for that.?All the best Steve.
