    Glad to see you out and about, Pete! I was getting bored watching your tying videos, bro! Haha. This is Al, your friend in the Philippines. Man, I miss trout fishing! I am currently stuck at home because of nationwide lockdown rules here--- haven't done much in terms of going after GTs and PNG black bass like I planned. I'd take a trout-less day like this on the Test anytime! Stay safe!

    Love your channel Peter, very keen to book a day out with you if you do guiding sessions. The westfair beat looks lovely so very eager to fish it this summer

    Good video. I have the fishpond switchback too, based upon your review last year.....but noticed in this video the harness/strapping is different on yours, going over both shoulders.....is this an optional extra from fishpond as it looks like it would be more comfortable. Thanks.

      Hi Damian, thanks for the comment! Having guided in it all last year i decided to modify the Switchback and add a Y shaped yoke which is much more comfortable for sure as it spreads the load nicely. It’s not a Fishpond accessory, it’s a British Army Issue MTP Virtus Y Harness Yoke Assembly which works quite nicely…

      @@AardvarkMcLeodFlyFishing fantastic job with it because it looks like a genuine Fishpond. Thanks for the info, I'll be looking into doing something similar if you wouldn't mind me pinching your idea.
      Keep up the excellent videos 👍
