    Doon the Doon Davie...nice wee day for you to get out on the river. Plenty action too. The easterly winds have thankfully abated but we are left with a softer northerly now. You are right the season is behind now due to the cold spell during April. On the Kelvin the fish are now thankfully rising well to LDO and the Grannom has put in an appearance too. Lovely wee river the Doon. Thanks for sharing your experiences. Great tying and great fishing. Tight lines for the season.

    A very productive outing on an overcast day. The Dynamite Harry dry fly is appealing to the trout. The name is interesting; seems like one that might be given to an old California gold miner. Thank you Davie, for showing the real insects, and their buggy fly imitators.
    Liked the background bird sounds, and the greening of Spring in Scotland.

    Absolutely a master class. Very reassuring to see you miss some fish. Nice demonstration of a modified snake roll cast when there is no backcast room. I only wish that the fly had a hi-viz sighter so I could follow it in the video

  • @bumptybump
    @bumptybump Рік тому +2

    The Doon seems to be fishing better than the Ayr at the moment Davie. Its been a slow start this year and hardly seeing any flies coming off but perhaps that because I'm only getting there later in the day. They are lovely colourful trout you are catching and nice to see a few smolts too.

    Thanks for another great video, I hope Cadence are giving you commission 😅 because on the back of watching your videos I have today ordered the same rod you are using and the reel , I was using a Greys 5 weight for dry fly stuff but feel I lose fish due to it not giving as much on the take.. so I look forward to receiving my new kit and using it.. I searched everywhere for the Harry dry fly you were using, but can't find anyone selling them, I do tie myself , but my talents are with nymphs and spiders..cheers
    P.s nice to see fish rising, I fish Earn and Devon at home, plus Whiteadder in the borders and haven't seen any decent rises so far this season.

    Great instructional video Davie. Lifts the spirit to see you out and about. I notice you look to be using a different fly line. Would that be from Mike Barrio? I only ask because I use one and find them to be really good?

  • @geoffblakesley2211
    @geoffblakesley2211 Рік тому

    Hi Davie. I love watching you on the river. Do you treat your lines when river fishing ? Such as adding fullers earth or similar below your dry fly when fishing duo or a foot or so above a dry when on its own ? or on your cast when fishing wets ? or any floatant above your dry fly when on it's own ? Hope that makes sense.

  • @dongil123
    @dongil123 Рік тому +1

    Really enjoyed this video Davie❤ one question, if you do catch a parr while trout fishing I'm assuming it must be returned, but when it comes to catching a rainbow trout on the river what procedure should you apply? Many thanks again.

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Рік тому +1

      Hi dongil123,
      Seatrout and salmon parr should always be returned but if you catch a rainbow trout then you can keep it. In all the years I have fished the river I have only caught two and they escaped from a fish farm that used to operate halfway up the water but as far as I believe they stopped a few years ago..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..
      All the very best Davie

    Im curious why you state that you cannot fish from the other side. Not familiar with most of the fishing rules in Europe. Please let me know just curious. I live in California near many rivers that I get to fish as the land owners only own up to the high water line and on the river we can go up and down to either side no matter .
    Thanks Gregg

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Рік тому

      Hi Gregg,
      The reason I can't fish the other side is that it's owned by another gentleman and the ticket I have only allows me to fish the side I was on, I am a member of a syndicate on this beat which allows me to fish on a Friday. I'm also a member of two club waters on the river Ayr which allows me to fish throughout the season, both clubs own these waters so I can fish everyday if I want..
      All the very best Davie
