So sorry I haven’t replied until now, I hadn’t had a notification. It was a lovely day and have barely done it since. I’m itching to get out for them. I absolutely love the entire experience, surrounded by nature, the sounds, the smells and of course the fishing. Thanks for watching 👍
Good session mate, glad you found your net as well . Yea some of us usually take the trebles hooks off and replace them with barbless singles hooks . 💪🏽🤙🏽
Great trout and typical of this fish, nothing is easy. Plenty of real learning here. Well done for an honest account, the problems are as useful as the successes. Superb fishing spot and as much as I'd love to fish it - keep it secret.
Man, the brownies were on fire. Great video! Beautiful place. You destroyed the myth of thinking that all trout fishermen in the UK used a fly rod 🤣. Great job!
@@BlackCountryPiker Many think that using a fly rod is the "real" way to fish. Sometimes us lure fishermen are looked down on. Glad you don't adhere to that philosophy.
@@fishingwithohdad cheers, it’s ridiculous, as an angler I feel that yes, have your dedication or preference but try all ways. I have now got a fly set up all be it old. And I will try fly fishing. Do I think it will rock my world? Nope, but I want the experience 👍. All anglers of all disciplines should respect each other. Not turn it in to a class thing!
They seem like all pretty decent sized fish, gorgeous markings n colours, I'm very lucky that I have the privilege to have a river about 10 minutes walk away that holds alot of trout sea trout and salmon seasonal depending and had some beautiful fish, pb wild brown 3lb 2oz and seatrout pb 5lb and many other fish over 2lb and considering it's not a huge river its almost exactly like where you are. We are lucky to have nature so beautiful and we get to fish 🐟 aswell!!
@@BlackCountryPiker absolutely 💯 👌 m8 your almost always a stones throw from fields trees or the sea, as I said I'm lucky to have been living here all my life. Drop me a line if you visit and I could show you atleast direct you to my favourite hot spots.
Glad ya found ya net.. it happened to me, if they get caught on somat the magnets just slip free.. its not a direct pull its a slip to the side.. I found mine but panicked as it cost me 70 quid and only had it a week lol. You best clipping it onto somat if have vegetation around you.
Great video Steve! Love the trout in that river and it’s where I’ve decided to start my lure fishing for trout, it’s been great fun so far. I went with the boots and waders and I can say they are great, didn’t spend a fortune on them but I can recommend the Wychwood SDS gorge boots and the Leeda/Wychwood profil waders 👍🏼 also get your Polarised glasses on if you haven’t already, they are a massive help in seeing what your walking on.
I bought proper chest waders & boots this season what a difference I had the Shakespeare Sigma neoprene with the welly boots attached they lasted 5 years so worth £80 I also use a Shakespeare waist pack it’s perfect for lure fishing with plenty room for all I need still use a small rucksack though for a waterproof & water & stuff ✌🏼💙🎣🏴👍🏼
I am fortunate to live in an area with a couple of small rivers that have good wild brownie fishing . I mostly fly fish for them but do enjoy the odd day lure fishing for them ,great fun on a 1g-5g rod . I catch quite a few on the small paddle tail softbaits on a jighead, the trout seem to like them . Breathable waders with separate boots do make a big difference, especially with a lot off walking involved lol .
@@BlackCountryPiker yes they are a bit of an expense if they are used only occasionally. I regularly trout fish during the season so it sort of justifies the price . In my mind anyway lol
Good stuff Steve. Yeh I made the switch recently from my olde rubber Wellington boot waders to high quality stocking foot waders with boots....my god the difference is light and day. Can't recommend it enough if you are gonna chase trout more often. Also I'd recommend a shorter rod, think 4'6 or 5' it'll make a huge difference.
Hi Jim, I’m pleased you liked it. Being my first time I’ve learnt a lot. In fairness, if I had my polarised sun glasses on I’d have been better off as the water was crystal clear. That said I’m sure it’s great just for balance?
I was watching these in the Derwert at Matlock yesterday, someone didn’t take his rod, net or anything else that could be lost on an adventure. They fight like mad by the look of it 😂 cracking stuff 👍👍👍
I recently was told to always hook your lure or spinner etc to the scaffolding of the eyes on the rod because the inner eyes made of porcelain and if you chip it it can cause no end of problems
Never done spinning for trout on a river. Only at my local res but never catch many on a spinner. First time I have seen your vids, will have a look at some more. Have subbed too!
2 years later like but try the mepps 00 or 0 size spinners if you’re in a small stream like this, they bag me loads of brownies on the stretch of river near me
"Looking a right pleb" 🤣🤣 I LOVED this video Steve, just my type of spot, one of my favourite types of fishing. Brilliant. It had me in stitches a few time though I have to admit. Haha P.S... I prefer to wear Wellies. 😆
😂😂😂😂 I’m please you liked it mate. I got told off by my good wife for not bleeping out the swears! 😂😂 I usually do but had a drink that night 🥴🥴. The river bed is full of odd sized rocks and boulders so I was all arse about tit most of the time walking upstream.
Nice vid mate. Looking to give it a gew myself in a likkle river not far out the black country. Could you give me a bit of advice please mate is it worth using a trace wire with normal line like with pike? Cheers
Thanks Stuart, personally I always use a wire trace and would never fish mono straight through. You’re pretty much guaranteed to get bitten off. There is an alternative of fluro as well, different strengths depending on if you are fishing for pike or perch. I try to match the strength of wire trace to that of my braid. Also try and get something that is 18-20 inches long and not the cheap short green ones 👍
@stuartparkes6791 high Stuart, I’m not sure why but it showed this comment to one of my pike videos and not a trout one as it shows me now, sorry. For trout I’m not too fussed using a trace unless there were pike present. I use 6lb braid as you can feel everything. Monk can be a bit too stretchy
Hiya mate, great video! Just wanted to know when this was filmed…there’s a chalk stream near me with trout in that I want to fish but it’s the close season on rivers etc. and idk if it’s permitted this time of year?
Hi Tom, this was filmed last week. The rivers near me are closed for coarse fish but open for trout via fly fishing or lures. You would need to check in for your area as they can vary. Try the following: www.gov.uk/freshwater-rod-fishing-rules/when-and-where-you-can-fish

@@BlackCountryPiker I only fish saltwater but I'd love to get a few wild trout. They look like good sport with the scrap they give! Thanks for replying, tight lines pal ✌️
@@BlackCountryPiker it's those very streams that got the mind wondering. Seems to be a bit easier to carry a rod and few spinners than it is to lug around all the beach gear haha

Beautiful wild brown I feel its been a very good day if I get a trout as big as that first one, excellent slow motion footage 👏

Brilliant Steve. Quick one. What do you use line wise for Trout? Braid etc? I use braid and a Fluorocarbon leader but hate the way braid tangles etc.
Thank you, I also use braid now I used to use mono but swapped it to 6lb braid straight through
Can’t beat the trout from small streams
Sadly not too many near the midlands that are free but yes, great action
