- Join Andy as he demonstrates how he uses the upstream worming technique to target wild trout.
Upstream worming can be hugely successful just after a flood or in very low water conditions.
Thank you so much for this information and you hooked up some good fish. I have a similar river in my local town that I fly fish and have got some amazing fish and perch in it over the past few years and I have always wanted to try this method and thanks to you for sharing this great video I can finally go back to my favourite fishing spot and give it a go thank you big like from me my friend happy fishing and take care 🤝🇮🇪🤝
Been using this method for over 40 years! Brilliant on seatrout and salmon and a killer on Dover sole and bass!
This is a good method, I used it frequently to great effect years ago on the river tees, especially when there was a spate and the water was muddy. I normally never bothered with the lead shot, a decent lobworm gave enough casting weight. Its good for big perch too....
You could maybe try a minnow bait-hook through the tail wrist, round the body once, hook under the dorsal fin, around the body again, into the gill, then out the mouth with the barb alongside the minnows jaw. That was a killer Tees bait.....
Good Stuff....Excellent Video, And Technique, Thanks!!!! -👍
Nice to see catch and release - Well done!
Bloody hell !! I fished the fife Eden back in 1996 I was working at Raf Lucas and our digs were in Cooper 🎣
No sea trout but some nice Browns on wet fly (snipe and purple , bibio ) looking forward to follow your channel !!😉👍🎣🎣
Great fun Andy !!!
Cant beat a bit of worming for your fish.
It's a good method I had 3 small brown trout today but I was able to hold them without dropping them back in 😂
Best in low water conditions ........... fished the River Wear during the summer, 2lb line using a 12½ ft float rod, slowly working upstream dropping the worm into the eddies behind big stones, often only 12-18 inches deep, places you would just not think would hold fish, stretches of shallow water. No shot just the worm, usually 1 in 10 held a fish, but you got to sense which were more likely than others.
Good video, thanks!
Thank you for the compliment!
great tips on the worms .
This is how I started fishing for trout and I don't understand why people don't do it more often, its always flys or lures. But using this method its not rare to have over 8 fish
Cause most lads find it more sporting fishing flys, you can return most of the fish you catch on fly and spinners! We're as with coloured water you'd slaughter seatrout and salmon with the worm most of the fish take the worm down there hole and a lot of the trout don't go back they do be bleeding.
@@pocallaghan5199rubbish. Fished only bait for trout only never fly fished and I’ve never deep hooked i use a twig rig for eels, ever harmed them. Always lipped
@@pocallaghan5199a lot of fly and lure guys I know have a terrible sense of fish welfare. Treble hooks cause a lot of harm to trout even if they’re barbless.
One of the worst experiences I had with a fish was catching a few small trout with a mepps and them getting hooked in the eye. The range in size of trout that even a size 0 mepps can catch is crazy. A lot of fly anglers are excessive when playing fish and the stress exerted on them alone means they’re unlikely to survive.
Successful worming in my opinion involves using a size 8 or above hook in stretches with known bigger fish and a float on the set up. I have been fishing that method after a flood since I was a child and have not once gut hooked a fish. The only way you could do so using that method is pure incompetence or stupidity because the float gives such superb bite indication.
It’s far more fun with the float worming because yes you lose a lot of fish but it’s awesome when you catch a few decent fish with that method and can quickly and easily get them back with no problems.
Title Says River trout using Upstream Worming Technique yet all three fish were caught downstream based on that I seen, This method he is using is very popular in Ireland for Trout/Sea trout sometimes Salmon .
Excellent sport of a barbless worm hook and a 1-7gram ultralight 5 foot rod with a shimano 500 or similar

Great, fishing
Out of the 3 fish that you caught it looked like 2 of them were from down stream. The other fish was harder to tell but I'd bet it wasn't from upstream either.
Sweet, I free line the worm myself
is that a fixed spool on fly rod?
Yes
hi, where abouts are you in this video, i would like to try this spot when i go to the eden
Not bad for a beginner .shot just a foot from the hook so it keeps the worms close down size 4 for STs and salmon three or four bradlings .lobs when it's high water. Fly does a better job most times....when you know the river.
So it’s possible to get salmon on this simple setup?!!
People saying he's catching fish downstream but normally fish swim upstream so he casts it upstream and let's it come downstream were a fish will normally be swimming upstream so it bumps into the bait on way up ?
i was trying this method not that good as i tought :)
Meandonlyme Andher I live in Colorado and I have huge success with this technique. I’ve caught some 2+pounders
Takes time to master the ‘feel’ of the worm, but a great technique for both trout and salmon 👍😀
If I can get me some worms easier than he catches trout. any tips?
Dig under cow shits
Looks like a spot near Springfield.
Hello! Where is this location? which river? cheers
He said it like 3 times at the start of the video would tell u but I can’t spell it🤣🤣🤣👍
Gutworm68 so you think we should not put fish back taken on a worm, WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE GOD. Next you will be telling us it hurts the fish.
Ive never flicked my worm before
It's a silly thing to do.
That looked like downstream worming to me? 🤔
Seen that.
Who the hell done the subtitles 😂😂😂
CATCH URSEL ON BOY THATS CALLED TROTING THE WORM AN WHY THE FLY ROD ALSO THE FACT THAT A SPRINGER MAY BE ON THE CARDS NOT GONNA EVEN COMENT ON THE OTHER POOR GOBBLERS YOU DEAPLY HOOKED.BUT FAIR I ENJOYED YOU
Straw mcdean hai
I thought upstreaming was best suited to low water conditions. That's cruel to worms as well. Which is why I only fish the fly.
If you think using worms for fishing is cruel then imho you shouldn't fish. You must be a feckin pansie.
Bit daft mate unless I don't get your sense of humour . If this is sarcasm then fair play .
+Arthur twosheds I think he's serious about the ''cruel to worm'' statement. Some mothers do ave em!
