A joy seeing such beautiful brown trout returned to such a lovely river. 40 yrs ago ideal for tea but I so appreciate the conservation of our native fish. Thanks for sharing your adventure.

Thanks Duncan. Yes, always lovely to see them go back. To quote Lee Wulff, “The fish you release is your gift to another angler and remember, it may have been someone's similar gift to you.” 👍

Excellent video Lyn, I know how hard you worked to produce this one, you should be proud of what you achieved here. There’s loads more to come everyone, so as Lyn would say… “Watch this space…” 💪

Thanks Chris! Couldn’t have done it without your help. Onwards and upwards 👍

Captivating and informative , great camera work and angling . As an angler who hasnt spent much time on the fly , your videos put across why we all love our fishing regardless of the discipline..

[@capturedonline]

Thanks John! I’m trying to strike the balance between explaining techniques to beginners, introducing the river and of course catching some fish. Many more to come 👍

Brilliant! Lovely video, especially when you know the water.

[@capturedonline]

Thanks Jan! You know that stretch more than most. It’s been a lot of work, but hopefully provides a glimpse into what the Loughor has to offer 👍

[@janbobrowski2474]

Definitely Lyn. The last part of the video was very exciting. I was out the next day, the fish you spooked above flatfish pool was the in the spot I caught a 18 inch fish.
