Very intetesting vid. If there's a gentle westerly breeze, I like fishing off the Cumbrian shore at Cow Green, especially later in summer. Your experience is similar to mine, if the fish aren't in the mood, they're hard to tempt, but on the right day it's magic. Dry black hopper my go-to in decent conditions.
Well done. Proper fly fishing. None of the pellet fed rainbow rubbish there. Don't get me wrong I fish for rainbows at times but love fishing for our native wild fish. What I think is troubling is the way fishing has gone with stockies and the competition fishing ethos, a culture has crept in over the years where people expect and demand high stocking rates and unrealistic numbers and size of fish. Blanking is now regarded with almost disgust and shame when it's a healthy part of natural fishing. The methods have also been degraded to the point that there is little to no respect for the heritage of our sport a sort of do what you like, anything goes with a whole strain of fly-fishing barely discernible from float fishing.
Thanks , I find that most viewers like a bit of music and a few hate it so I try to keep it on the low volume side so I hope to keep all happy. Thanks again for your comments. Regards Rod

I really enjoy your videos, particularly as all the fisheries are in the north. Please keep them coming.
I hope to, I am going back to Cow Green in a day or two, many thanks. Rod
My Dad passed away 2 weeks ago. Our last trip was up to Cowgreen. He loved his fly fishing and went to Cowgreen all the time. Thanks for the video.😢
A very moving comment, hope to be back there soon. I hope to bump into you in the future and have a chat about your Dad. Best wishes Rod.
Another interesting and enjoyable watch many thanks
Thanks 👍
