- After a day on the Toorongo River last season, I dropped into the Loch River on the way home. Having never fly fished it, I was surprised at the number of fish notwithstanding the high water. I can't wait to fish dries up here in summer!

Its so good to see a video raw and as it happened. Thanks for this mate. It makes my fishing trips seem more normal. I also appreciate your manners and choice of words too. It says a lot about your character and makes your videos much more appealing so thank you
Hey and thanks so much, that’s really kind of you to say :)
Fished the Loch on the weekend and I'm glad to see it's not just me having problems with how tight it can be.
I used a 7' 2wt and orange beaded grub nymphs and caught my first couple of browns.
Thanks for the vids Tom, I'm learning a lot from them.
Good video Tom. A true to life experience.
Love the unedited footage - its good to see the trial and error, scrub hookups, tripping over logs. Reminds us all that you're a mere mortal like us ;)
Looks like my kinda water! Appreciate the share!
Awesome video Tom. Love the long format. All the best
Bloody awesome video once again Tom. Thanks
Great video Tom showing excellent adaption to the tight conditions. Most of us would have taken a quick look & given up.
Really enjoyed the unedited clip gives me way more idea of how you approach the water. Cheers
That's great!
That is what I was going for :)
@@tomjarmanfishing3208 definitely keen for some more like this.
Another great video and fishing with a little 2 wt, good to see.
Thanks and thanks for watching!
Nice one again , I fish a lot this area and the toorongo stay my favourite. It’s almost the same
G'Day,
Enjoyed your video very much. The Loch looks very similar to some of the overgrown little creeks that I fish in and around Healesville. I've been thinking of trying new(to me) waters around Noogee, including the Loch River, in September, provided we are able to travel anywhere with COVID19 restrictions. Fingers crossed!
I usually fish a 6'6" 3/4 wt in small streams although I have started using a 5 foot tenkara style rod with 6 foot of line plus tippet. It's very up close and personal fishing but has enough reach for tiny creeks.
Cheers,
Steve.
Hey very nice! You'll love it on the rivers like the Tooorongo fishing like that. Thanks for watching Steve!
Oh, and keep up your bow and arrow casts skills for that tight scubby stream.
Love fishing with a 2 to 3 wt short rod, haven't done too much though in the last couple of years due to the drought. Try a elk hair caddis even during winter you may be surprised. Cheers
Another local - the water doesn't get too much clearer up there, but the trout are beautiful, naturally recruiting stock and awesome to catch.
What your opinion of the Pink worm.
Nice one
great video! noojee is an awesome spot isnt it!
So good! Great water and scenery!
"Svrček (I think that's how one spells it) with the metallic red", you say. Is that the French Nymph, the Droz Nymph or what you called it?
Always the confusion with those three names. I'm very interested with the history and the story associated with them. When I meet Martin, I hope to have a good conversation with him about that.
Do you reckon Daniel uses 7X too? Ha ha ha! 😃
Good one Tom - a little stream that will work you out big time; just as you've found.
Oh gosh... my head hurts haha. Lets call it a red butted black nymph with a silver bead 😅
Ha ha ha! . . . and a silver rib. Ha ha ha!
Great little spot Tom, those squirmy worms look good I'll have to tie some. I wonder if whiting would take em?
I'm sure the tan ones and some of the other colours would go very well. Bream eat them which is a good sign
Great video. I'm a reasonably experienced fly fisher, and tie my own flies, and must admit I've never seen a worm fly used for trout, or seen a pattern for one, although it makes complete sense especially in the high water you are fishing here. Seen them for saltwater, heavily weighted for whiting etc, but never trout. Did you invent that pattern yourself? If so, I'd be interested in the recipe.
Good vid Tom. I love your guys small creeks, although seeing how overgrown it is makes me terrified of snakes haha. I think that comes with being a kiwi. What material are you using for your worm fly? It looks nice and wiggly.
Trade secret ollie ;)
Spring/ later winter in australia when this was filmed, right?
This was in mid May in Australia yes :)
