    Very nice. Glad I stayed long enough for the weather to change, and the fish to start biting. Beautiful countryside.

    Hi davie, a great way to spend time watching you obviously enjoying your time on the water. You're videos are excellent and entertaining. Describing your set up and flies gives us a lot of info. Thanks. colin 🎣

    Davie, you certainly aren't like the other tubers that showcase catch after catch and that's the point of their channel. You take us with you on your outings and there is a certain serenity to time spent with you. I saw your video pop up and audibly said "AAhh YES!!!" and realized I had to comment to let you know that. Time to zone out with you for an hour 👍

    I need to get out and fish . Haven’t done any for 6yrs . Shoulder is bad . I miss the hell out of it . I love my 10ft 5wt . Not tried that line . I think I’ll have to buys new fly lines as they must be at least 10 years old . I prefer a snow bee. Excellent video just what I needed to inspire myself to start fishing again . Your right a lot of fish hold close in . So I should be ok on short casts .

    Davie it’s great watching you in action with your rod not just tying flies , I’ve been watching you and tying your flies for a few years now and some I’ve had success and some not so much , here in Tasmania our trout season is closed at the moment , central highlands of Tasmania 20 July wind is blowing 30 knots with gusts out to 40 + knots we had a top temperature of 0 degree C at Liawenee today, hope you aren’t getting the temps like most of Europe & North America, keep up the great work Davie all the best from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 ps hope your not a big cricket fan hate to disappoint you keeping the ashes again

    Was up there today doing some sampling for the power company and it was tough going. Never even saw a trout rise through the rain but eventually a perch and a wee trout saved my day. We had 2 out in a boat taking water samples while I was the safety man waiting ashore so I had to have a cast. Good to see your videos each week Davie.

    That 10’ Cadence rod does turn the line over very well. Lovely conditions too. I would have tried my ‘go to’ Iron Blue Dun there on those conditions also. Wouldn’t swap my 10’ 4-piece, 5wt Hardy for those conditions though. Well done Davie👍

  • @robertmajor4904
    @robertmajor4904 Год назад

    Great days fishing. It has always amazed me how quickly trout react, especially on lakes. They must just sit a foot or so below the surface, probably why osprey catch them.

    Looks amazing there Davie, is there good road access?, I'll be heading down to Ayrshire for a bit of fishing when we move back home in September.
    Thoroughly enjoyed the dry fly takes!!

      Hi Chris,
      Yes there is a single track road up to the loch with passing places so just take your time as you head up..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..
      All the very best Davie

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Год назад

      Hi Brian,
      My cast is around 12ft and from that I form one or two droppers to two widths of my outstretched arms and a bit..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..

    Is Loch Doon a natural lake? You mentioned the Hydroelectric. After you talking about Brig O Doon I thought the loch had always been there. Thanks.

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Год назад +1

      Hi Ross,
      Loch Doon originally was a natural loch but got dammed in the 1930s for the hydroelectric system though it is mostly natural, all they do is control it's height..

    Another nice day fishing with you, Davie.
    I've meant to ask before... what is the release tool you use for deeply hooked fish. It looks like it works better than my method of using forceps.

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Год назад

      Hi Mike,
      I have attached a link to the ketchum release tool that I used in the video and they come in different sizes.I used the midge version as the flies I use mostly will fit fine..I'm glad you enjoyed the video..

    I've noticed that while quite a piece of water, the fish taken are smaller then one might expect. Also, as you say, the lack of insects on the water. I'm wondering, has there been an overall decline in insects and hatches over the past several years?

  • @donnaperry7894
    @donnaperry7894 Год назад

    I certainly know you were targeting more surface fish; I was thinking as you started out the video but you would have to have two rods.

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  Год назад

      Hi @juliewaters8882,
      I have a PayPal donation button on my RUclips homepage so when someone donates I send them a number for that months draw using their email that I get from PayPal. The draw is on the last day of the month at 7pm UK time so that you can watch to see if your number is drawn and thank you for asking....I'm glad your husband enjoys my videos..
