    This is a really good video and addresses many of issues I face on the water! I.e. when to set the hook, fishing in coloured water, where the fish are etc! Thank you!!

    Really appreciate this video and show. Going to get out that black marker and mark my floating line as you have done so effectively. Makes a lot of sense. To be honest I have been getting used to watching that line tighten and realize that there is a fair amount of time between that happening and actually feeling it. Those marks will help. Thanks again. Will be using some of your pointers tomorrow here in Central Oregon. Best to ya.

    Hey what's up from British Columbia. I fish stillwaters here and catch up to 10lb. Rainbow Trout at the local stocker lake. I've got one fly to rule them all. Although it has two feathers a bit of wool and it is the one. I sell them for $100 each. One dozen minimum. No bites on that. Oh well I guess I'll have to catch the biggest trout and win all the Derby's myself. If you looked at the fly you would say you've got it all wrong but it has all my knowledge that I've gathered in 60 year's Salmon and Trout fishing.

    Do you generally kneel down or was that part of the procedure for this fishery as normally I stand up .

      Kneeling or sitting reduces the angle from angler to flies - giving better straight line contact, in strong wind having a lower profile to the water also makes casting slightly easier .

    Which midge tip was Howard using please?

      Hi Trevor, Howard was using a prototype line, but the closest thing we stock would be the RIO Aqualux Midge Tip - www.sportfish.co.uk/rio-aqualux-midge-tip-fly-line.html

    Is using an indicator a good idea?

      It makes sense but hardly the essence of fly fishing .

    • @sportfish

      Using an indicator can be a great method on stillwaters for both nymphs and lures. One of our favourite indicator methods is to fish small buzzers totally static watching for any movement in the indicator. You'll soon realise how many gentle takes you may have been missing before! Howard's line-marking method shown in the video functions in a very similar way.

      @@ronniebiggs4026 "fly" fishing he's not. He's using nymphs and lures so the essence changes with the tactic.
