Thanks Jim. Tight lines 🎣

Thanks Hugh! Hopefully get some more videos up this coming season. Tight lines 🎣

Cheers for watching Steve. Tight lines! 🎣

Hi Jim. Thanks for watching. I think this was the airflo superflo 7# tight lines

The rod I’m using in the video is a 9ft 6” Greys GRXI 7# you could try using a slightly longer rod (perhaps 10ft) as you will probably have quite a long leader/tippet and that extra length will aid in getting the flies to turn over easier. As far as action goes it doesn’t really matter as long as it suits you and the way you cast. I hope this helps and thanks for watching! Tight lines 👍

@@DannyLeitch thanks Danny!

Thanks for watching. The rod is a Greys GRXI 7# tight lines 👍

Hi Kyle, thanks for liking my video. The reel is an old Greys GRXi, nothing fancy but it does the job. Tight lines 🎣

Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully getting some fishing done next week so fingers crossed. Have you been out fishing much recently?

@@DannyLeitch I visited my local Res several weeks ago to try out a new (second hand) rod I bought Grey's platinum x 11ft3 #7. With my wonderful Sunray lines which I stumbled across last year. Wow what a beast of a rod the extra length felt strange at first but soon got used to it. Landed 6 fish, 5 on my own version of a yellow owl? and 1 on a humongous tied like Dave downie. Great fun. Ps don't listen to the Sunray haters they are now fantastic! cast like nothing else I have ever used, lie straight on water and minimal if any memory. I have Proline and gitdown sink tip. Ps don't over line with them though.

Ps also bought some neon biscuit and full pk of micro rib from your ebay site bk in june looks the business, top quality!

@@ibelieve1468 Thanks for that. Always great to have feedback. The neon biscuit has been very popular, I’ve not got much left to be honest and I hope to add another couple of colours in the coming weeks.

Thanks James. A general rule of thumb I use for the leader length is twice the length of the rod although if your fishing from the boat you could shorten that a bit. In terms of fly choice, I would normally fish something bushy on the top dropper (perhaps a Soldier Palmer) and a pheasant tail nymph or similar on the point. That way you should be fishing several levels of the water column at the same time. I hope this helps and tight lines for fishing the lake.

@@DannyLeitch hi Danny that paints the perfect picture of Leader length and flies. Thanks for your kindness mate ,very much obliged and ofcourse the vids. Tightest of lines mate I honestly cant wait to try that 😁👏👏👏👏

Yeah they are hard to beat mate 👍

Glad you enjoyed the video. That would be good to hear how you get on with them 👍

Cheers Allan

Thanks James 👍 tight lines 🎣

Thanks Stevie

I was using a Sharpe’s of Aberdeen Gordon 10’ 7# and line is an airflo superflo. Thanks for watching 🎣

@@DannyLeitch thank you and thank you for posting. The reel seat is very like my Grey's platinum X and my XD. Is memory still an issue with the line? it seems to cast well but lays in coils on water. How straight does it lie on water when static?

@@ibelieve1468 yeah I wouldn’t recommend the line. It casts well enough but the memory is still a big problem 🎣

Cheers mate. The video ended up a bit longer than I had planned lol. Enjoy Harelaw 👍🎣

Thanks buddy 👍 really appreciate the kind words

Thanks John appreciate your nice comments. I have a big order going out this week so after that I’m free to tie you up some. Contact me direct at dannysdubbing@yahoo.com and let me know what you are after. Oh and the line is an Airflo superflo. Thanks again.

Cheers Toby. Any black hopper should do the trick buddy 👍 maybe see you up Harelaw soon if I ever get the chance to get up!

@@DannyLeitch look forward to it maybe a day on the bank with you get you up to speed with harelaw again 😂

Cheers Stevie! Enjoying your videos buddy 👍

Thanks Derick! I really appreciate that buddy. All the best. Danny

Yes that’s it buddy 👍

Thanks for commenting Jim. Yes we have had problems with them over the last few years and I can only see it getting worse unfortunately. We have decoys out in the middle of the water but they quickly catch on to what these are so there not really of any use. Thanks again for watching 🎣

Cheers! Yeah one of my favourites mate. I had a season ticket last year but couldn’t take one out again this year as the wife was moved on to a different shift due to the pandemic. So I’ll only be able to make it over the odd weekend. Maybe see you up there one weekend buddy 👍

@@DannyLeitch yeah I’m up regularly when I’m home from offshore

Thanks Stevie! It was a cracking night, hopefully one of many this year. Keep the videos coming mate 👍

@@DannyLeitch you to Danny , I’ll watch out for them mate

Cheers mate that’s great to hear. Tight lines 🎣

Just my local club water buddy. Thanks 🎣

Cool. Looks a nice bit of water. Best type of fishing mate.

Thanks Brian! They were in a chasing mood that’s for sure. Tight lines!

Thanks for watching James. Tight lines 🎣

Thanks Stef, it was my local club water. Tight lines!

Thanks! I was using a Greys GRXI 9’6 #7 with a 15 foot leader with the flies evenly spaced 5 foot intervals. Hope this helps. Tight lines!

Your very welcome. Thanks for subscribing and happy tying!

Cheers buddy. Thanks for watching

Thanks Brian! Glad you enjoyed it, tight lines.

@@DannyLeitch no problem, is that antron wool you are using I can't seem to find it.? Thanks.

@@brianr9529 poly yarn or polypropylene.

Thanks Jim. Yes day tickets are available. Cracking dry fly water.

Thanks Archie that’s great to hear! Tight lines!

@@DannyLeitch sorry to act like a stalker. Caught a pb 15lb 5oz rainbow this afternoon on a green okay tied with your pattern.

@@archiebathgate9122 fantastic buddy. What fishery was that? I’m hoping to get out in the next week or 2 but it’s difficult at the moment with work commitments.

@@DannyLeitch Kingennie near Dundee. Can't go far with lockdown. Huge flock of cormorants had settled there over their few days of snow closure and pretty much cleaned the place out. A lot of restocking needed.

@@archiebathgate9122 Is that the one with the golf course next to it? If it is I’ve played golf there but never fished it. Might be one for me to come up and try after lockdown. 👍

Hi, the rod is a greys grxi same as the reel. This was the 9’6” 7# and I was using an airflo superflo floating line.

Check out Davie McPhail’s video of a grunter on RUclips to see what I was using. Hope this helps. Tight lines.

@@DannyLeitch I have the reel in 5/6 and 7/8 and the rod in a #5 all good

@@DannyLeitch is the superflo a 40+ or normal excuse my ignorance. Thank you for replying

It is a nice line for distance casting but not the best at close range. Check out this link - www.airflofishing.com/airflo-superflo-presentation-weight-forward-floating-fly-lines.html
