Salmon Fly Fishing | Upper Redgorton | River Tay | May 2024

Join me as I fish with my good friend and fellow youtuber Colin ‪@CF_Fishing‬ . We were ably assisted by the friendly and knowledgable Ghillie Mike. It was a super hot day but I enjoyed fishing here on an excellent beat accessed via my membership of the Perth & District Angling Association (www.pdaa.co.uk). Upper Redgorton on the River Tay with the famous Craigs.

Looks like another great bit of water to fish. Need to have a go on the Tay again I've only fished it once before.

[@CornishChrisTheFish]

Go for it Toby 👍

Great video do you ever fish the margins infront of you before hitting right across the river ive picked up quite a few salmon over the years doing that

[@CornishChrisTheFish]

Yes I do just it doesn't always come out in the video, thanks for the advice 👍

[@magnetchi]

Awesome video again, what a beautiful place to fish on 👍👊

[@CornishChrisTheFish]

Thanks 👍

[@CF_Fishing]

At least we had a laugh. Good wee vid. I'm on the Awe right now. Salmon jumping over flyline. I wonder when it will happen this year😂😂😂

[@CornishChrisTheFish]

Aye, it was a fun day, glad we could meet up again. Tight lines

[@rodneykaye9399]

to hear you are enjoying making the video as you sure are not having any enjoyment from catching a fish. Lots of gish are caught on the spinner on the Tay in the spring, it might be worth giving it a try. Either that or change your fly su.pplier.

Or alternatively the fish stocks are really low and everyone whom i know that fish the Tay, have all said what a disappointing season it has been so far.
