What a beautiful location, we really are blessed here in Scotland
For fly fishing these amazing rivers, full of wild brown trout.
Whether you're tying or fishing I could watch you all day, thanks Davie
The best fly fishing videos on UA-cam bar none, amazing scenery, and an equally amazing fisherman! Again thank you Davie❤
Fantastic video as usual Davie,that troot at 45mins,wow, couple pounder easy, lovely 🎣🏴🏴
Miss UK rivers and this helps me feel like I'm there. Love the honesty leaving the missed fish in the video.
Hi Davie and congratulation on the fantastic trout you caught; I have been following you for many years, you are my fly tying teacher and my favourite fly is Green Peter's Sedge Hopper with which I fished a lot of trouts. See you soon!
I love your videos Davie. My dad who was a great angler passed away recently and these videos are comforting and remind me of him.
Fantastic video, really enjoyed it, so nice to hear the sound of the river and birds on a beautiful river, much better than music dubbed over the top.
What a great day of fishing. Love that you link the flies, thank you Davie.
That was a smashing trout, Davie, nice job! Good to see you enjoying your time on the water, and I always pick up a good few tips and tricks from you to try next time. Your commentary's always entertaining and I'm glad to know I'm not alone getting tangled from missed strikes! Top man 👍
Watched this (and other fly fishing trips) wth my 8 year old son standing by me. Yesterday we went out fishing the Provo River in Utah. He asked me "is this where the Wee trout live" I said (puzzled by his wording.) "there might be some" a minute later we caught a nice rainbow, he said "is that a wee trout??" it was then I realized he thought "a wee trout" or a "wee brown" was a TYPE of trout, not a SIZE of trout hahahah. love your stuff Davie!
Brilliant....It shows you that he was watching and was interested in the wee trout now what will happen if I wear my kilt...🤣
@@DavieMcPhail "That? oh those are Scottish fishing waders!" of course that answer might just give him more questions....like when my Dad told me that escalators went all the way through the world and the chinese used the other sides...lol
Superb fishing under very difficult conditions, GREAT VIDEO.
Thank You, Davie
Great day, great fish, great fly fishing, great fisherman! Thank you
congrats for these 3 nice brownies 💪🏻💪🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻a very fine result .....
nice video .....👍🏻👍🏻
all the best....🙏🏻 from switzerland
That scenery is amazing! 25 degree heat. 🙂 As I'm watching this, it is about 35 outside here in the middle of Texas. 🤪
Davie nicely done
Boy!! Some super fish on a HOT day!!! That one was a BIG Brown!! Well Done!!!!
Great fun to watch. My son and I got out this last Friday and part of Saturday. Flows so low it was like August. Had the same problem with misses and quick releases. Had drifts going upstream due to low flows and wind. DH and the Usual ruled the day.
Great video again davie,stunning fish for any weather👌,i was on the tweed yesterday,it was scorching ,burnt all my arms🙈 but managed a few fish too,so all worth it in the end haha,keep up the videos,thanks davie 👍
that little caddis worked very well , good looking river
Beautiful trout in testing conditions. Great post as always ❤😊
A great day! Good video! That caddis nymph was a killer.
Brilliant video again sir you certainly doing well on the rivers so far some cracking trout in tough conditions
Great video Davie thoroughly enjoyed it 🐟🎣
Cracking video again Davie! Not made easy for you but trout was worth it! Hope you're well👍
Благодарю,Дэви! Шикарная река, отличная рыбалка, красивая природа! Замечательно! 👍🤝🇰🇿
A great session, thanks for sharing
Just been out on my local spate river Davie.. Went early, but the beggars were toying with me. I had rises but they were coming short. Came away around half one as the sun was belting down and there's no shade whatsoever.
Another great video, thanks Davie
Lindos videos Davie , una clase completa de pesca con mosca. Se agradece inmensamente que nos puedas transportar a tan bellos lugares de pesca.
Aye Davie , nothing like making wrong conditions look like a stroll well done , which I’m sure it wasn’t, folk sometimes forget troot have tae eat like us in all weathers it’s all about adapting great stuff again
Nice weather we been having Davie …. Surprisingly warm for Scotland
What tippet size ?
Another great video Davie.
Great weather Davie but not really for fishing. In Scotland this is something we aren't used to and nor are the trout. Last kick of daylight has been my respite on the Ayr last week with some nice trout and a few salmon moving too.
Bought some of you flies yesterday from angling active mphail olive grunters
Love your natural, honest, relaxed and experienced commentary. Feel I am fishing with you even though I live in South Africa. I once fly fished the Stinchar back in 1968 on school hols also with low river and 'heat wave'. You have bridged that nostalgic time gap for me, thanks Davie! PS what is your magic dry sedge pattern you are using in this video?
Hi @cruiserwilliams6075,
The Stinchar is not that far away, I've had a few off it in the past though I've not fished it for a few years...I'll attach a link to the caddis pattern I was catching on for you to see..

All the very best Davie..
good fishim=ng
Well done Davie, my heartbeat went up watching you and the fight off the big trout. I wonder how high our blood pressure gets during a good fish fight.
Cheers, stsy safe, Big Davie
I'd wonder how the water temperature is holding up
Thanks again, Davie! 👍👍
Hi Comes a Horseman,
The water is a good temperature due to it coming from the loch so it never gets high unlike the other river I fish which is too warm so I don't fish it until it rains again..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..
All the very best Davie
I think I like the sound of the river as much as the scenery.....
Who makes the net you were using? I like the small size hoop but a fairly deep rubber net.
Hi @dtrout,
I was given the frame of the net from a friend that was throwing it away so I took it from him and bought the silicon net off amazon for £5, it was a little big but I got it to fit..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..
All the very best Davie
Nice.
In Russia , when they want to wish a successful fishing , they say neither tail nor scales .
And it is also considered wrong !!! wish the fisherman GOOD LUCK!
DAVI you are the best!!!
Bonjour Davie.
Je regarde votre dernière vidéo depuis ma chambre d'hôtel à Arbroath.
J'ai traversé l'Ecosse depuis Edinburg, Oban, Dufftown et Aberdeen...
Quelle est cette belle rivière ?
J'ai croisé la Don et la Spey... La prochaine fois que je vie.s en Ecosse, j'apporte ma canne à mouche.
Merci pour vis vidéo.
Hi Olivier Briclot,
I am fishing the River Doon which is on the south west coast just over 35 miles south of Glasgow, I have attached a link to it on google maps for you to see..I'm glad you are enjoying your visit to Scotland and my video..
All the very best Davie

@@DavieMcPhail merci beaucoup Davie.
Mes vacances sont magiques en Ecosse. Je reviendrai ! 😊
The water color looks very clear on this trip. I woluld be interested in what types of rod, line and reels you like to use.🤔🙂
Hi Gizmo Carr,
I was using a Cadence 9ft 4# rod and their reel and line in the video, I've been using their rods for a couple of seasons now and I am very happy with them..I have attached links to them for you to see...The water is lovely and clear at the moment as you can see in the video so the fish are in great condition..
All the very best Davie

Great video as usual Davie. Some excellent quality brownies. Thoroughly enjoyed your efforts.
Have the brown trout always been this quality on the Doon, or has it improved since the decline of salmon and seatrout? Cheers 👍
Hi Scott,
Even when I was a boy I caught lovely brown trout when I fished the Doon in Dalmellinton where I was born which was in the 70s so for me there's always been good trout in the river..Even when I was a Ghillie on the Doon I would fish for brown trout when there were no salmon around so I would say it's a great trout water..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..
All the very best Davie..
@@DavieMcPhail Hi Davie,
Thanks for your reply. A Dalmellington boy! What a wonderful place to grow up,the Carrick forest and Loch Doon and the river too. It's no wonder you ended up doing the great things you love to do.
I lived in Patna for a time while working on the trout farm in Dalrymple, quite often walked along the Doon, I think it was the Smithston beat,looked very fishy,(Salmon).
When I'm not fishing on the river myself it's a great privilege to join you on your trips out.
On your flytying videos, that are an incredible inspiration, you quite often mention managing a trout fishery. Just wondered which one?
Keep up the great work 👍
Cheers Scott
Hi Scott, I worked at Springwater fishery so I knew Henry really well.. I was there from 1994 when it opened until l started working at the Glasgow Angling Centre around 2006..I also worked at Smithston so I knew this water really well, many good trout in there too..I'm glad you enjoy the videos..
All the very best Davie
@@DavieMcPhail Thanks Davie, it's a small world.
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Very enjoyable and informative. Can you recommend a good midge spray? I was told about good one called jungle juice that the mad fisherman uses in Ireland.
Hi I Believe,
Avon skin so soft is very good for midges so I have attached a link to it for you to see..If you read the feedback you'll see many use this..
All the very best Davie

Davie, at like 15:11 you miss a fish and you let out some word. What was that?!😂 I gotta know what you said and what the meaning of this word is 😂.
Shoocht! I will let you work out the meaning for yourself 😜
