I'm trying to fish pools twice if possible ie first with a Sunray style fly and then a heavier conehead tube but if they aren't there you can't catch them.
Just started watching your videos. Nice to see you doing your bit for in stream habitat - all those woody debris going in the river as you slid down the bank 😆 fair play for getting down to that pool. Looking forward to watching your other videos.
Great video. I was concerned for your waders going down that bank then concerned for your eyebrows when you lit the stove 😂. Good to see Karla on the bank with you again. Tight lines for the next trip.
Watched a few of your videos,, on the one you did on the upper Findhorn you said something along the lines your a bit of a green horn. Best advice,,, instead of running around from river to river get to know one, each river,,,beat and pool is different,, one's I like are the cheap as chips one's,,, river Lossiemouth,,,60 quid a season. And you never seen anyone on it, great little river. Nairn was 150, and both had miles to go at. Moved back down recently and back on the liddle water ,great little river too. One observation,, to long a line. Especially on the smaller rivers.. straight across ,,and down fast and into there faces,,,o and very light hold of the line for those tiny pluckes that develop, no resistance. And flys ,keep it simple my old pal on the nairn Gordon rennie only ever fished allys had a million fish to em. My favourite is silver stoats tubes mainly,, good for both sea trout and salmon.
Cheers for the pointers from about August onwards last year I mostly fished small silver stoat tubes and had the majority of my fish, both salmon and seatrout on them. I will be visiting the Liddle at some point this year as I know have access to a club beat. It's good to know it is a productive river. Tight lines
I did not start salmon fishing until I was 50, being right handed I persevered until I could single or double Spey off of either shoulder, it is surprisingly easy.
I need to do a channel "a chefs life" and cook some decent food on it lol that looked grim. That said, love all the videos so keep them coming and do include the cooking cause at least it is cooking not re heating
Im not a Salmon angler but my uncle was and he was pretty decent, he cast across the river and let it swing around and down but i notice you cast almost directly down stream, whats the difference and why ? Im a trout/grayling angler and cast across as well, each to their own though 😊 Another great video (thanks) and great to see the dog back out, shes a stunner. Looking forward to your next one.
Thanks, in that particular case I was casting at a shallow angle to slow the swing of the fly. The water was up and flowing fast that day so a fly cast straight across would cause a belly to form in the fly line which the current would pull downstream causing the fly to be pulled up to the surface and whip across the river without the salmon getting a good look at it. So the theory goes any way. If the current is slower then casting across might be the right presentation for the day. Usually I like to do a mixture of both to present the fly in different ways to the fish.
@abakerslife cheers for that, im going to give the salmon a bash at some point so trying to watch and learn as much as possible. This weather must be doing your nut in, the rivers are a mess up here. Looking forward to your next video 🍻
Lol the gas can do that mate if your in the van and you have not used it for a long time when it's on transit some times the gas gets trapped in pockets in the pipes I have campers for years lol
Hmm you held the rod and felt the weight of the fish so obv i'll give you that one but the it had to be a trout because it was so shallow i wont give you as i have sen so many salmon standing so shallow their back fin was actually out of the water. I had hopes for this vid but as the conditions didnt increase at the rate you where hoping for sadly no salmon where landed but there is always next time and i still enjoyed the vid:)
The water certainly looked good that day but I've had a good few days like that already this year. The fish are coming in to my local rivers but in a trickle. This month and next should see the main run of spring salmon on that river so I will just keep the faith and keep fishing it.
Oh! Well, you got that right. The trinity is a dialectic. 2, the father and son may denote difference or division or all things being pulled apart. 3 includes the spirit or unity where it's all for one and one for all. It doesn't make anything or anyone "equal," just that they are meant FOR each other. Like your tackle. Dismantled a rod is not a reel, a reel is not a line and a line is not a lure. But because they've all been designed for a common purpose and for the good, joined together that's what you use to fish. Note how a sacrifice has had to be made. The singular self solitude and isolation of the father is overcome when he's confronted by the other, the son. That dualism is then transcended in their being for the other or their unity. JC was a communist. Karl Marx says much the same thing with a few modifications. The singularity and the dualism are ways that don't stop at that. Unity is the 3rd way. Like that old nun said, "There's more to fishing than catching fish."

Excellent and thanks for sharing! Conditions as you say looked great.
Cheers, they've looked great a few times now and the result has still been a blank!!
@@abakerslife Yes tell me, try switching thing around in terms of depth, fly if not already. I have a bad habit of not changing tactics, fly etc.
I'm trying to fish pools twice if possible ie first with a Sunray style fly and then a heavier conehead tube but if they aren't there you can't catch them.
As well as the Tweed I fish the Whiteadder regularly as its my local rivers so its great to see you fish it, hope to se you back many times.
Thanks, I'm giving it a good go up there this year, I've racked up quite a few days so far trying to find the fish.
This video came recommended, and now I can't stop watching the entire playlist.

Cheers, I'm doing it so nobody gets the idea of releasing beavers down here to do that.
great little river on its day fished it many times great video thanks
Many thanks, I'm headed there tomorrow as it happens.
Awesome video, and what a fantastic place to fish. Better luck next time 👍👊
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you.
Another excellent video 👍 keep them coming please.
Thanks, will do!
Great video. I was concerned for your waders going down that bank then concerned for your eyebrows when you lit the stove 😂. Good to see Karla on the bank with you again. Tight lines for the next trip.
Well funnily enough they now leak in the arse end!
Any joy up north yet? They are trickling in down here but not in any great numbers.
@abakerslife I've seen they've had a 28lber off the Findhorn today. I haven't had much chance to get out lately hopefully be out again soon.
@@Hardlinesangling Wow, good luck if you do
If you ever get tired of fishing you already have the skill set to go mountaineering. Loved the video, more please.
I'm not great with heights mate so will stick to the river for now.
Particularly impressed with your culinary skills pal. And the added bonus is that you appear to have asbestos hands.
Baker's hands and chef's fingers mate, hard earned during 20 years in kitchens.
Shocked and saddened to see you blank!! Thoughts and prayers with your landing net at this difficult time.
My net was actually so distraught it threw itself away recently so I'm currently awaiting yet another replacment.
@abakerslife No way!! You've gone overboard with the sacrifices to the river this year!! Fly line and now net!. Let it end there!

@@abakerslife yep,,anything you need to know just ask,don't mind helping out. And the liddle is infact a good salmon river in it's own right.
I did not start salmon fishing until I was 50, being right handed I persevered until I could single or double Spey off of either shoulder, it is surprisingly easy.
I will give it a whirl.

I actually think that was a wholesome enough effort after a 12 hour fishing day.

I fish there on a regular basis, I'm surprised I wasn't around
Lol the gas can do that mate if your in the van and you have not used it for a long time when it's on transit some times the gas gets trapped in pockets in the pipes I have campers for years lol
Who needs eyebrows anyway?!
Jesus 🥱

What rod and line do you use?
I was using a Hardy nsx ultralite 13'6" #8/9 with a Rio outbound scandi line
You need a bigger frying pan Rob🍳🤔
I probably do, wait till you see what I squeezed in there on the next trip!

Most boring salmon casting video.
Dude your comment was hardly Shakespeare so it looks like we both have some work to do.
@@abakerslife most boring video.
