@@brianwalton3016 never used nail varnish, but if it's good stuff it should work just as good.

No I grow my own, I got a kit for a Christmas present, the seeds come in bags of 500. Regards Mick

It is strange, a lad last week had a 4lb brown on a worm, we would catch 6-8 in a few hours here, but now its 1 or 2, I need to move further down the river past the works, but it about parking near as well. Thanks for watching Regards Mick

Video 252 shows the Japanese Beetle and the first one in this video is very new and shown before using it.

Thanks for that, trying to get about on different waters, today I was going to be Arnfield, but its closed on a Monday ha ha, the summer months can be difficult, so why not try something strange like a coffee bean, well its works, waiting to try out the teabag fly next. Thanks for the comment and watching Regards Mick

I did in this video I had the buzzer about 24ich under the bung, but if i fish it as a single fly without the bung, the buzzer normally stays at about 1 - 2 ft with a slow fig 8 or letting it drift in the wind with the fly line keeping it strolling along at a slow pace.

@@mdflyfishinguk5220 Thank you very much!!!!

The fly stands up well when casting, but when a trout hits it hard its gone, but i did mention in the video about this and that i make up about 15 at a time, only fished it on 2 days over the year, in fact its getting an outing tomorrow on a local river. Thanks for watching and the comment Regards MD

@@mdflyfishinguk5220 sorry I watched it with no volume 🤣

Excellent, I had a good brown last week and a few roach that knock about the water took the beetle as well. Thanks for watching and the comment Regards Mick

Hi i have one of these clipped to my tying desk, which is easy to turn on and off with a simple switch, The head is mounted on an adjustable arm which can be positioned anywhere before you need it. www.amazon.co.uk/Black-Light-Curing-Lamp-Wavelength/dp/B09MLRDHCJ Regards Mick

@@mdflyfishinguk5220 many thanks mick for the speedy reply keep up the vids they’re great 👍

Good question! its an idea for the body of the beetle, you can still add legs and stuff, but as a bean its got taste. Thanks for watching and the comment. Regards MD

You can spot the top of the bean or put a tag on it, I've done some with a red tag hi vis on the base of the hook hook

Glad you think so! but using it at as body, with extras it better at staying afloat. Thanks for the comment Regards MD

Read it online and thought i would give it a go, so last Saturday it went on to the water and even thu it was a hot day it worked, about-flyfishing.com/fly-patterns/japanese-beetle-fly-with-coffee-beans/

Great! Could also add some legs

@@imchrisme5514 Yes add legs or a head, this page was my information to try out. about-flyfishing.com/fly-patterns/japanese-beetle-fly-with-coffee-beans/

Hi mick,great videos hope you showed Andy your coffee bean fly before you used it? What’s next dog biscuits tied to hooks, because someone will try it ,still great videos

@garylacey5815 no it's only getting the one outing here, as I will get banned ha

In the colder months yes, please read the feed back Regards MD www.ebay.co.uk/itm/256421547528

Hi Robin, I am Mick's son, Thomas, who does all the filming. I use a Canon RP camera with a 24-105 L Series Lens, to film for my Dad's videos. Glad to hear you enjoyed the video 😃

Enjoying your pulling buzzer. Saved me from a few blanks on a recent Hebrides trip for wild brownies. Thank you for the introduction!

scratch that, seen earleir comment. tight lines

yes they are and the water level is down too, again can be difficult with the weather, i like to fish it when the water is high between, Oct - Apr

message him at facebook.com/Franksflies?locale=en_GB

I can't remember, but I would say about 12ft with the bung set about 3ft regards MD

@mdflyfishinguk5220 thankyou I'll be going sunday I have some squirmys too try

@@Dannydanny991 Been today and we were 2 of 3 people on the water. I had a good one on a cdc, but that was it, Very poor fishing weather, Regards Mick

​@mdflyfishinguk5220 yes think going too try a sinking tip too get right down at first thankyou

This was difficult day, so just filmed it as an outdoor venture and put Toms filming together. Regards Mick .

For sure, at first i thought i had not unhooked the fish, but i then watched the video back that Thomas had filmed and saw the fly in slow motion leave the net and land in the water. keep well Regards Mick

@@twitchst3nsta23 hope so it's a £2k lens. Regards MD

My normal place has a lot of work going on, but was happy to explore this area, going out again with some dry flies to see what happens and trying to get to the faster water further up the river. Regards Mick

@@mdflyfishinguk5220 good luck mate. Our water runs along hadrians wall and really hard to fish. £30 a year just can't beat it. Also we have exchange tickets for other waters in Cumbria. Do yous have the exchange ticket option?

@@Madmicksoutdooractivities I've been past it, but it was some time ago back in late 90s when me and a few mates walked the wall from west to east

My next video, which will be number 250 will be my last one on RUclips as I will be on Netflix from August, smart move hay? look what it did for Wrexham FC. $$$$$$$

Thanks 👍
