      A lot of talking and a few nice trout caught but hopefully you find some good info in there even though you have been fishing for a long time now.

      Yeah it's very effective and even better on a euro rod setup with the right leaders. i'll do a video about that at some stage too

      It's an awesome spot that one. Where that browny was just above it on the opposite bank I have done well out of before too. PS. Please edit your comment to remove the stream name reference if you are happy to. Thanks

      How are you finding the transition? Enjoying the fly fishing? The tangles and hooking bushes can be a bit frustrating at first but it becomes less.

    Plus it's a nice change from catching 3/4 lb browns in my local plenty browns no bows that's why this streams good plenty bows and the odd brown lols

    Nice to watch even for an old campaigner. What is the camera mount you have on your pack?

    • @CrazyAboutFlyFishing
      @CrazyAboutFlyFishing  17 днів тому +2

      That's great to hear. The mount is DIY. PVC pipe with a gopro ball head cable tied on top and painted black then strapped to my backpack at a slight backward angle. The Gopro has a charging door and I have a powerbank in the backpack then I just use voice commands to operate the camera

    Euro is fly fishing as your whole entire rig is flies hence the fly fishing. ant called spin or dead bait fishing 😅 make you wonder these days 😢😊

    • @CrazyAboutFlyFishing
      @CrazyAboutFlyFishing  14 днів тому

      It does differ from all the other forms of fly fishing in that you don't require a fly line to cast the flies and the only way fly fishing differs from most other fishing methods is that it uses the weight of the fly line to cast the flies. The reason some consider euro nymphing as "spin fishing" is because you use the weight of the flies to cast, just like you use the weight of the lure to cast when spin fishing. I euro nymph a fair bit and enjoy it a lot. It is very effective. As I say in the video I just don't suggest beginners start with euro nymphing as they won't learn to cast a fly line which will limit them to euro nymphing while there is much more to fly fishing. Tight lines and thanks for watching.

    • @CrazyAboutFlyFishing
      @CrazyAboutFlyFishing  17 днів тому

      Haha I'm leaning toward agreeing only because of the lack of fly fishing but I do still find it similar enough in most ways so I'm on the fence with that one but I do prefer casting a fly line, maybe cause I suck at euro ;)
