I am editing my second day at Upper Floors and hope to add it to RUclips soon. I am fortunate to have been given the chance to fish such a great beat. Cheers Iain. 🥃
Thanks Mat. I loved your catch of the sea trout I have had a small amount of success fishing in the sea and managed one about 5lb they are full of beans and in prime condition while they are feeding in among the kelp Cheers Iain. 🥃
@@IainSB many thanks for watching that, glad you enjoyed it - I certainly enjoyed catching it, glad a few folks encouraged me and helped with advice. Just want another now although soon the fish will be looking towards our spate rivers too. Best of luck with your pursuit of your next salmon, all the best 👍
I am lucky Paddy to have had the chance to fish with Colin and Ritchie and hopefully I'll get a chance next year. when I start at the top of that pool the anticipation level is so high. Cheers Iain. 🥃
I think Peter had a bit of a shock when he opened his box and Jacob recognised the fly. it was kind of Jacob to send the message. I'm not sure if he had seen any videos but I think Peter pointed him in the direction of RUclips Cheers Iain. 🥃
Ha, glad to hear they’re tying and using your Iain Bain Special on the Restigouche. A few years ago, when I started following you, I went to our local fly shop, tied a couple, and sought after some landlocked salmon. I’ve caught several this year, but on smelt patterns and nymphs. Time for me to return to the Special! Lovely sea trout!
I am grateful that you would try my favourite fly Richard will you let me know how you fair. it will be interesting to find out if you are successful Cheers and tight lines Iain 🥃
Thanks Peter We Scotts have to wait until Sunday to find out if we stay or come home I think your guys will need to try a bit harder as well 🤞. Cheers Iain. 🥃
@@IainSB Scotland have such great players generally, I think your national team is very good and wish you good luck with the Sunday results!! England have not played well yet, I'm hoping they improve and show what they can do, I hope Watkins gets more playing time, cheers Peter. Tight lines too!!!😁
If we caught a couple of these every year we would be happy Frank. I think my biggest was back in 2014 I had one of about 14lb next time I get a sea trout I may tag a photo of it onto the end of a video. Cheers Iain. 🥃
there are some attractive pools James the black rock seems to be favourite one of the pools just up from the hut had 4 fish of in one day . a great stretch of water Cheers Iain. 🥃
There were a few in the water James 😉. I'm editing day 2 . Glad the seals are back at sea I think they are picking them off in the estuary Cheers Iain. 🥃
Thank you Colin There is one thing about recording a catch is that you get to replay it. it's difficult trying to remember every detail when we just play it back in our heads Cheers Iain. 🥃
Lot of nice size seatrout here where i live in Norway this year and they are in the rivers very early, quite a few 12 pounders caught already and we see some in the 16-20 pound range jumping here and there.
That is good that the seatrout are there in numbers that can be seen and ones that are so large It is horrific to find out that there have been so many rivers closed because of the lack of fish. hopefully something can be done to rectify the loss of one of Norways star attractions Cheers Iain. 🥃
Nice fish Iain.....unfortunately I lost a big fish at Kinkell Bridge on Monday morning....took off for the sea and I couldn't follow it or turn it and that was that. It's nice to see you getting one though...hopefully a few more to come for ye. All the best....
I think I have had the same fish at my fly Kevin I have lost 8 fish so far this season. its a good job our sport isn't called catching or I would have a bad reputation Tighter Lines. Cheers Iain. 🥃
Thanks Daniel. The noise from the small reel I was fishing with doesn't give the desired noise. it did take a cracking run before it turned. Cheers Iain
if the Ghillie had told me at the start of the day I would catch a sea trout like that I would look forward with every cast until it took the fly and then the exciting bit Cheers Iain. 🥃
I hope that I am given the chance to fish there again next year James Colin and Ritchie put a lot of effort into making sure that we have the best chance of a fish. Cheers Iain. 🥃
I have been lucky to have Eric invite me to join his party. I think that if ever days are available they get napped up pretty quickly Il need to stop taking the Micky out of Eric or he may not invite me next year Cheers Iain. 🥃
That pool is renowned for holding good sea trout and I think that Ritchie has seen them often and didn't seem to exited. I had a big smile for the rest of the day. Cheers Iain. 🥃
I eat a lot of fish Ian I was going to try for some mackerel tomorrow but other things have got in the way maybe sometime soon. they are great on the BBQ. Cheers Iain. 🥃
The only way I am getting big is with eating to much Neil my feet are firmly anchored in my wadders I think that it was good of Jacob to send the message and I know that Peter is planning another Trip Cheers Iain. 🥃
I heard today that Norway has closed 27 river due to conservation problems this could happen in Scotland if nothing is done to help improve stocks ... Marine Scotland are determined to try close all hatcheries except if the salmon are almost none existent leaving wild life to their own devices isn't an option these days man has altered the world that much that control and assistance are needed in some cases excuse the rant Cheers Iain. 🥃
It is Sam. It will take a while to refill my Piggy bank and in the mean time I'll try to take it out for a cast it is a great rod to fish with. I had a cast with the 15ft er but think it's a bit heavy for me all the rest in the R 8 range are pretty good. have you managed to have a cast with one. Cheers Iain. 🥃
@@IainSB I have Ian ,a brief shot of the 14ftr with a spey line,to me the line was too light for the rod and i didnt really enjoy it, maybe i am too used to my gaelforce rods that bend into the handle,it was a beautiful looking rod tho ,what model did you go for
Great video and a cracking Sea Trout...thanks for sharing!
thanks Your video fishing the North Esk what a cracking fish and well released well done Cheers Iain 🥃
Lovely sea trout Iain, good fight too, well done, hope it's a salmon next time!! Cheers Peter. What a great looking piece of river there.
I am editing my second day at Upper Floors and hope to add it to RUclips soon. I am fortunate to have been given the chance to fish such a great beat. Cheers Iain. 🥃
Great to see Sea trout at their best Ian. No rain for a change. Interesting insight into fly patterns. Thanks again for letting us share your day.😂
It is my Pleasure Richard I am blessed that I have the time to play on the computer . and on occasions show my catch
All the best. Cheers Iain. 🥃
Screaming reel again Iain, well done. Sea trout are beautiful fish to see.
Nick from York
They always put up a good show Nick and getting a big one adds faster heart beat Cheers Iain. 🥃
That was an amazing sea trout, congratulations.

Lovely sea trout Ian that stretch of river looked promising. Well done.

Well done Iain, nice to hear about your flies doing well..

Ah...a beat I would love to try...have never got near it in 25 years of spring labours and hopes on the lower Tweed.
I have been lucky to have Eric invite me to join his party. I think that if ever days are available they get napped up pretty quickly
Il need to stop taking the Micky out of Eric or he may not invite me next year Cheers Iain. 🥃
What a belter.....
That pool is renowned for holding good sea trout and I think that Ritchie has seen them often and didn't seem to exited. I had a big smile for the rest of the day. Cheers Iain. 🥃
I Love eating fish , ive stopped fishing for river fish with all this catch and release
I eat a lot of fish Ian I was going to try for some mackerel tomorrow but other things have got in the way maybe sometime soon. they are great on the BBQ. Cheers Iain. 🥃
Great video again ian and lovely sea trout and getting world famous aswell you will be getting too big for you tube soon 😂
The only way I am getting big is with eating to much Neil my feet are firmly anchored in my wadders I think that it was good of Jacob to send the message and I know that Peter is planning another Trip Cheers Iain. 🥃
Nice 👌
Thanks Stephen another enjoyable day at the river Cheers Iain. 🥃
Sjø Ørret er en Nydelig Fisk…min absolut favoritt

All the fish are up at Cardrona now I suspect.
The river has been high and the salmon are all the way throughout the Tweed system Richard Cheers Iain. 🥃
