Love a snake ;-) nice video boys.
Thanks Lindsay, yes that perch fry snake is a real killer there at the moment, place is still on fire! just like the gift that keeps on giving!!
Great video guys
Thanks Steven , hope you have had a chance to get out?
@@troutwithleigh4503 yeah there’s a small fishery less than a mile from my house so go there most days. I’ve been one off the lucky ones
Great Film , really enjoyed that
Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it we had fun making it!
Good see my old friend Nick doing the business, I taught him everything he knows about fly fishing :-) :-)
He told me Isaac Newton taught him everything he knows about fishing??? which sounds credible due to his age!!! lol
I'm saying nothing, absolutely nothing 😊 Nick will tell you age is only a number and then counter with what handsome and wise old devil he is. And you never know when I might bump in to him especially as we have started bank fishing Grafham so mum's the word

I am only as old as the woman I feel! so that makes me 47 and I'm sticking to it!!!lol
Hello mate! Good to hear from you! Let me know when you are going to Grafham and I'll make sure I'm at Rutland !! :-) Seriously though - drop me a line and we can meet up. Cheers bud.
Brilliant
Thanks for watching
Great watch Leigh that new rod looks interesting
I tried it Russell it was an amazing rod, i love the concept and it is really light and truly responsive an 8 weight can easily through a 9 but due to the shape is softer on the playing side so not so many fish broken off on the strike like some high performance blanks
@@troutwithleigh4503 sounds great Leigh will be looking into trying it cheers
Hi Russell, thanks for watching me and Leigh mucking about at Grafham! If you want to be kept informed about the new D-Flex rods, go to www.d-flex.com to register your interest and they will send you updates. Thanks and regards - Nick

Looks great Leigh! - Was fun filming with you and look forward to doing some more soon. All the best buddy - you owe me dinner! :-)
Thanks for helping out Nick always a great fun day out with you mate, shame we are in lock down or i would buy you dinner!!!
Always enjoy your video’s Leigh very interesting and informative and always with a smile and a hint of fun, look forward to the next one.👍
Thanks Peter, yes we do have fun making them, Trevor fell in with the camera on this shoot but was not running at the time!! I'm sure it would have gone viral lol luckily the camera was insured , when he was back on the bank and we discovered he was ok we did have a good laugh, you have to in these uncertain days and we do hope that although we want them to be informative we want to show the fun side of fishing also, thanks for watching Peter we are out on location next week to do another hopefully less calamitous episode!!!
Great watch Leigh. As a physics fan myself, I’m very intrigued by the reuleaux triangle rod, and love the concept of more power out and more play in, very interesting. Cheers, Chris
Thanks Chris I had a play with it and was amazed by its fast response and kindness when playing a fish! a rod defo to look out for!
Hi Chris, the rod is a real innovation and hopefully will be produced for sale in 2021. Keep an eye on progress here....www.d-flex.com - all the best - Nick.
@@nickdunn9433 - will keep my eye out for sure, as I need to try one! Would be perfect for doing a review on my channel of something a bit different 👍🏻
@@TheTroutFlyFisherman Once we have launched and have some samples I will try to get one to you to review. Thanks for your interest Chris and stay tuned!
@@nickdunn9433 - nice one, look forward to it Nick 👍🏻
What flourocarbon do you use
I only use Fulling mill, 8-10 for pulling, 8lb for nymphs , 6 for dry's lot of people think of it as tow rope but it is supposedly invisible in water and although it has a larger diameter than some others I have less breakages less tangles and more money in my pocket !!!lol
would love to visit Grafham some day how much is a day ticket ?
Its about £35-00 a day off the bank at the moment, I do guiding trips off the bank if your ever interested check out my web site Leigh pond fly -fishing services Its fishing so well at the moment to be honest its been an incredible season there for the hole time its been open this crazy year!
@@troutwithleigh4503 thank you I will contact you when I am coming :)
Outstanding vidio as always Leigh, thanks for uploading the video. I like the idea of triangle rod!!. Kind regards Mike. Norfolk. 🎣🎣🐟🐟
Thanks as always for watching Mike, the rod is amazing mate watch out for the development and launch of it !
Hi Mike, If you want to be kept informed about the new D-Flex rods, go to @t to register your interest and they will send you updates. Thanks and regards - Nick
@@FanaticalFlyFishing many thanks for your help. I appreciate that.
Hi Leigh & Trevor nick, I am big fan of your videos, I am thinking of buying some Waders can you recommend an think , I am looking online but it’s all very confusing & expensive .
Firstly thanks for watching, depends on how much you want to spend really ? cant go wrong with snowbee for value for money but if you really want to splash out go for Simms got to be the best on the market! I assume its breast waders your looking at?
@@troutwithleigh4503 Hi Leigh.......I am also interested in waders.....I notice that you wear the all in one waders (boot wise) - whereas Nick looks to be wearing the stocking foot waders and boots.....I was thinking of getting a pair of the all in ones - mainly as they seem to be more reasonable / cost effective. But it does seem to be a bit of a minefield - seem to get lots of conflicting advice (some people advocate spending as much as you can - others don't bother, they will still leak after a while!!!)......Wondered what waders you were wearing as they look quite good.....Probably out of my budget - not as serious an angler as you guys! But thought I would ask..........
As someone who has made a few trips to Grafham this year for the first time, really enjoyed the video.
The one's I had on in the film are Vass 600 series cost around £58-00 so good value for money!
@@stuartrobertson4490 Not expensive Stuart they are Vass 600 series £58-00 so if they only last a few years or you don't wade that much then I would recommend them no problem, I was using Qrvis neoprene before which were good in the winter but pricey and too warm in the summer for me! I would go for the Vass good value for money and comfortable
Trout with Leigh - thanks Leigh - I will check them out. Have seen Vass recommend on forums - so was thinking of checking them out. Don’t Wade often so didn’t want to break the bank. That is a real help. Always enjoy your videos. Love all the advice you give. Thanks
Nick/Leigh - loved the video. Never fished Spring Bank but it definitely looks worth a go, especially in a Westerly.
Hi Mat how is the rest of your season panning out? Spring bank is a bit of a track from the end of the car park but defo worth it! you can only fish it up to end of October though!
@@troutwithleigh4503 Good point, well made! Forgot that it’s ‘off limits’ from 1st November.
Fished the willows at Grafham today and had a good result - fish hoovering up the shrimp I’d disturbed, just a few feet in front of me.
1st time testing a Wychwood Rocket floater that your good friend (I believe) Tim Joyce recommended.
Savage takes but managed not to get snapped up.
Will look you up for some buzzer fishing next year.
Keep up the good work with the videos!
@@mathewdurkin5045 Cheers Mat yes look forward to buzzer fishing next year mate
@@mathewdurkin5045 How's your season going Matt? I was at Rutland last weekend hard and mad on the buzzers! so many fish there was unbelievable! some guy's catching 100 plus a day! too many in my view but just goes to show how good the fishing is at the moment!
@@troutwithleigh4503 Hi Leigh, good to hear from you and still loving the videos. I had a day out at Rutland for the first time ever, yesterday (and fished my first ever loch style comp with the newly formed Fly Fishing Large Reservoir Club). Had a great day but more success on diawls and crunchers than buzzers - to be fair the guys that queued up in Dickensons Bay had a field day on buzzers but I didn’t find that out until the weigh in!
