    Davie, thank you for this video and the one on the Ayr. It is great watching it because I feel like I am right beside you looking over your shoulder and not 4,000 miles away in the Midwest of the US.
    I have to chuckle when you get the take and miss the fish, your reactions are priceless and are ones that I've had myself many times. So thanks for taking me fishing in Scotland again, I had the privilege of fishing the Tummel a few years ago but the waters you are fishing in are much more attractive and similar to my home waters here in Wisconsin USA.

    Love fishing with Davie. Other videos show perfect, long spectacular casts and fish after fish. Watching Davie is like watching myself fish. Every cast not perfect, end up in the trees now and then and a few fish reward the effort and patience, as if we need more reward than to be in such a beautiful place. It looks so manicured. Wonderful!!

      I'm glad you enjoyed the video and believe it or not the Brig O' Doon is 100 yards away from where I was and I can fish right down and below it so I should go down and give it a go..

But soon sea trout will be in the estuary so there’s that! You gave me a preview of fishing to come! Thanks for that! Tight lines!! 😊

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Рік тому

      Hi Murray,
      The main difference really is that there's no grayling in the Doon as it can fish just as well with the brown trout as the fly life can be a good..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..

    Nice video Davie. Wonder what the temp. was? My inclination would have been to fish an the Elk Hair Caddis with a pupa on the dropper maybe a foot or so on the point. I often let that dry move all the way down on a swing and even submerge at the end of the drift. Get a lot of fish here in the US on similar looking water with that combination when there is nothing rising.

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Рік тому

      Hi David,
      I think the temperature was around 12 to 15 degrees at the most in the sun and as there was little wind it felt good..I'm sure if I had fished your cast I would have caught as well..

      I've been to the UK a number of times over the years and spent the better part of one summer in Arklow IRE. Did some wonderful fishing there and loved the villages of Riverchapel, Gorey and Enniscorthy. Hope to get back there again someday soon.

      Hi JAF IrAuLtZa!,
      No you can't get a day ticket on this part of the river though you can further up the river on certain club waters which will have a few trout in the pools, The local tackle shop usually knows who to contact when you need to buy a season or day ticket..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Рік тому

      Hi Mike,
      As you may have saw in the video I had a few bushes and small trees behind me so I was casting across myself and slightly down stream/side casting and as well roll and spey casting so it was trying just to keep off them. When I was further up and was back casting and using the upstream wind to help turn the fly over..It's not the prettiest cast to be honest but I do plan to use another camera as the season goes on so it will show what I am doing much better..

Still light enough for trout, sea trout and grilse! Look forward to your new camera and improved views of your casting. Spey rods/ switch rods are quite rare here but slowly catching on for some of our larger rivers on my side of the pond!

      There is a burn that runs past Dalleagles and Burnfoot (3 miles from New Cumnock on the Dalmellington road) and flows into the Nith. When much younger I used to swim in the pool where they met. When the water cleared there was a bloody shoal of 3lb ish grayling. Quite a sight I can tell you.
