As the "fellow angler" and a novice you helped, thanks for the buzzer, the advice and the video Rhys! It was a pleasure to meet you and a joy to watch you in action. Your modesty prevented you from saying your first fish was literally on your second cast (no edits!) and your first three were within more like 5 minutes than 8! You make it look easy....I STILL blanked!!!.....but I'm determined to put your video to good use! Thanks for your videos, they're really informative and great quality (sorry about the intrusion, you took it well....I didn't expect to feature! 😲). Diolch!
Hi John, I was watching you in the background and feeling for you. Been in your boots many times. First subscribed to Rhys's channel 18 months ago and it transformed my fishing last season.
His knowledge of his quarry, the environment they live in and his ability to read the water is second to non.
A pleasure to watch a true Gentleman and Master at work.
An absolute credit to our sport.
@@seanl1054 Hi Sean, thanks for sharing my pain! 😃 Yes, Rhys is a gentleman. He is so modest and helpful in his videos, he comes across as a true mentor; it's what gave me the courage to approach him in the first place. I really didn't want to interrupt his filming! Now I have a new practical challenge for him, an entirely new series of videos: 'Rhys Fishes.....with THAT TW@T'.....now there's a challenge.....I'd subscribe, if only for the comedy value!! Forget Mortimer and Whitehouse....we'd make them look like 'Panorama Investigates Fly Fishing!' The viewers would cry with laughter...and poor Rhys would just cry! 😄 😁 🤣 😂
@@johnlloyd2642 Amazon Prime would snatch it up.
I could always play the poor English second cousin twice removed 😂
@@seanl1054 I just had a call from Spielberg!!! Yes, the more the merrier! Thank you for your kind comment too Sean: "A pleasurero watch a true Gentleman and Master at work"....credit where its due...Rhys wasn't bad either!! 🤣
Thanks for the kind words John and Shaun. Some days things go to plan and some days they don’t, happens to us all. Garn is fishing very well at this time of year so it’s worth getting back down there and putting the pieces of the puzzle together once again. Tightlines and see you both on the bank again some day 🎣
Excellent the way you helped out a fellow angler who is looking to learn. Well done, and I also try to improve my fishing by watching and learning from your videos.
Thank you. We’re all always learning something new in this sport 🙂
I thought exactly the same. Good sportsmanship 👏
Helping others is what fishing is all about learning and sharing and enjoying the day out as well as relaxing so another good video thanks Rhys
Absolutely agree Ian. Thank you
Fantastic video showing us all how buzzer fishing should be done.Credit to you for helping fellow fishermen and keep up the excellent work,Rhys
Thank you Dave!
A great advert for fishing and a perfect example of how anglers should behave at the bank, thank you!
Thank you Sak
Just what I need as a novice for my next stillwater trip. Arrive at the lake, read the water, choose method and flies, catch fish! Absolutely brilliant, Rhys. Many thanks!
Thanks john!
Hi Rhys I was fishing next to you when you was filming this and I must say it was amazing to watch 👏🏻👏🏻 I was there since half 7 and didn’t catch until 12 and that was my only fish to see you catch the way you did knowing what flies to use just shows why you fish for your country 👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👌🏻keep up the good work
Thanks Lewis. Glad you managed to get stuck into the fish. It’s fishing well at the moment so get yourself back down there and go again 🎣
What I nice guy you are! It’s a privilege to teach beginners especially if they have the courage to ask! I have done the same with RC model flying.
Well done for sharing the wealth with your fellow anglers pal, top angling.
You too Lindsay....I've learned a great deal about tying flies from you......I just need to learn how to use them to catch the fish!! 🤣
That’s what it’s al about lindsay 🎣
I'd forgotten how good this video is
The boys did mention how well the buzzer fishing went. What a difference a week or so makes. Great stuff Rhys. Did struggle with the audio mind. Catch up some time.
Thanks shaun
Hi Rhys I think you’re videos are great and have found them very helpful as I’m quite new to fly fishing would you mind recommending a top quality floating line that would help me get a better distance please as I’m using one that was given to my with an old reel I have a 7-8weight rod keep the videos and tutorials coming I’m 70 years old I hope I’m not to old to take up fly fishing as I can’t get enough of it it’s very addictive thanks rhys
Have a look at a cortland 444 peach or a wychwood Rocket :)
Nice one Rhys and top marks for helping out a fellow angler. 👏👏👏👏
Thanks 👍
Hi Rhys, Enjoyed your video for this Spring Buzzer session some good strong fighting fish caught. That was a really nice gesture helping and sharing your experience with another Angler who was looking for advice. Best regards, Wayne 😀👍
Many thanks Wayne. That’s what angling is all about 🎣
Brilliant video, and very helpful info,great to see you back 👍
Cheers sean
Another quality video Rhys, helped us all learn what to use and when
Thanks Barr!
Fantastic and think you are a gentleman for helping the novice. Keep up the great videos it educates us beginners no end.
Many thanks Chris
I'm so glad you kept at the videos mate. You help so many people. Keep it up Rhys
Thanks Josh. They'll keep going, just as and when I can :)
Great edit as always, just makes the fishing look so easy! So nice to see such a friendly & genuinely helpful approach to other anglers…what a gent 👍🙂🏴

I’ve bumped into Jez but I’m still waiting to finally cross paths with you too 🤣 Cracker as always Rhys! Hope the Scotland trip is a belter for you! Tight lines! 💪🏼
Thanks Hop, videos to follow soon of Scotland :)
Great video as usual and brilliant on helping fellow anglers 👍🏽that what it all about
Absolutely John, thank you.
just a pleasure and a joy to watch. is there a time of year when you would use a buzzer etc
Excellent advice Rhys 👌
Thank you 🙌
Yet an other great video, thanks for all the hard work you put into these, really helps me with my decision making on my days out, and my general angler knowledge ! Also great to watch ! Thanks
Glad they’re helpful Simon
Great video and brilliant tips flat calm and sunshine my biggest nightmare in fly fishing can never master any tips please 🙏
very much depends on the time of year and fishery you're at. One thing I would say is slow everything right down. Overcast and wind allow you a bit more freedom to make mistakes and move flies fast etc... Sun and flat calm have the complete opposite effect and everything is elongated, so fish small, fish slow and you'll get interest from fish.
The goat 🐐. A new vid always makes my day.
Thank you B C
Awesome angling, brilliant video thanks for sharing that with us m8.
You make it look sooo easy!😊
Like all fishing, luck plays a part 🙂
As per usual simply the best 👌
Cheers Tam
Great video as Always. Love how you make it look easy.
Thanks 👍
Great vedio! You are an excellent angler..
Curious. ..I live in the US and it's good to see you have great fishing for good sized trout.
Are thoes private lakes? Do they fertilize them? They seem so developed with all the docks with artificial turf? In my state of Oregon we have very few private lakes , but 1,400 public lakes. Most with a road and some with primitive camp grounds. Some are stocked, but none are fertilized.
I greatly admire the well developed techniques and understanding that you have raised to a high degree. My own pursuit has benefited from your shared vedios..!!
Thank you!
just jim
Another cracking video buddy thank you . I'll be trying these methods this week 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Give them a go and let me know how it goes 🎣
@Rhys Fishes will do bud 👍🏻
@@RhysFishes it worked a treat buddy.
Brilliant as always Rhys 👏👏👍🍺
Thank you! Cheers!
Enjoyed that. Thanks for the tutorial. Have a great birthday.
Thanks so much! Paul
Great informative video on my local venue 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Great informative video. Thanks for sharing
Thank you :)
Great video as always Rhys 👌
Appreciate it robin
Hi Rhys love the video, where are you fishing? Cheers Stephen
Garnffrwd trout fishery :)
Thanks Rhys!
You could tell that chap on your right wasn’t catching Rhys. As soon as you hooked up on Number one, he was interested in your method. Good session
Missed you at burnhouse 😢
video coming soon :)
Excellent video once more
Thank you so much 😀
Very informative!
Thank you Michael
Would love to see a video on how you fish 2-3 flies and I can’t seem to tie 3 flies tidy always ends up tangled
Start with 2 flies, 6ft apart. Fish with that for a few months. Then move to 3 flies, 5ft apart :)
Thanks James
I think you’ll be barred from that lake after today, 😄 excellent video, and great information..
Thanks, luckily it’s our local water 🙂
just caught the end of the video. Spring for Buzzers
Hello ryse I am new but would it be possible for you to do a video on how to judge the length of your leaders. I am struggling to understand length when you say 15ft to measure without having a measuring tape. Any help would be appreciated
Hi Rhys, another great video. I’m over in Canada and have really enjoyed all your productions! Can you tell me what brand or where I might locate that hard case gear bag you use and sit on in this video? Thanks and keep on producing great content.
Thanks Geoff. It's just a shakespeare box. Rather inexpensive, around £50 gbp. There are other options such as Daiwa, or even Peli (Peli boxes are robust, heavy and can be customised endlessly, but come at a much higher price point). Tightlines in Canada!
Thanks Rhys. It’s really funny that on this side of the pond, those boxes just don’t seem to be available or as popular with anglers. It’s unfortunate because I can really see the functionality. Any chance you could recommend a vendor there that might ship internationally? If not, that’s ok too. Thanks again.
@@2trout you could try a company called Glasgow angling. I’m not sure of their shipping policy but it wouldn’t surprise me if they did. Almost 90% of anglers that take their fishing seriously, used these box style tackle carriers 👍
Thanks Rhys. I’ll check them out. Cheers. Tight lines!
Hi Rhys, Great video! Got a question about droppers. See when a dropper gets too short after changing flies, I tend to cut off the dropper and leave the knot. I then take a pre-tied dropper with a perfection loop at the end and loop it in like a sliding dropper. Is that something you (other comp anglers) do? Or do you do something different?
If a dropper knot gets too short, I’ll normally just tie a fresh leader but that’s just preference. Most anglers will just attatch on another dropper leader to the existing knot 👍
@@RhysFishes cheers, makes sense!
You bring the box to sit on I go as light as I can . Your fishing for pet fish there 😂 . You may come over this far to the midlands of Ireland for a few wild ones
I’ve fished mask, corrib and con over the years, don’t judge a book by its cover 😂
@@RhysFishes only pulling your leg must get me self a good chair box . Me back does kill me when when casting MRI scan badly needed next time your over try Lough sheelin or ennel ennel held the world record for about 100 years for the biggest brown caught . Lough lene not far from the picturesque fore Abby .Lough Derravaragh Lough owel for the pet fish lol . ,Some great lakes around the midlands only thing is salmon don't come in that far . You got a page on FB or what name you go under on it .
@@ColtSievers1000 fantastic fisheries. Jer is on corrib next week. My socials are linked in the video description 🎣
Hi Rhys great video helping out that fellow angler brilliant, I went out on Saturday and had a cracking day up here in deepest darkest Northumberland good conditions loads of buzzers hatching tried buzzers straight lining and washing line only one fish to buzzer so put a tequila blob on and 2 Diawls had a couple on the Diawls but the rest of my fish (18) came to the tequila blob is this because they are not switched onto buzzers up here yet or where they switched onto the blob coulors?
It could have been that there wasn’t much of a hatch on that day or they just liked the look of the blob you were presenting (daphnia present etc). Thank you
Be interesting to know if your local to me after seeing the route you took to Garnffrwd and what your local river is?
Probably am if you recognise the route :)
Hi Rhys
Just looking for a little advice really on buzzer fishing, specifically when limited to fishing with just one fly.
I entered a competition last week and the rules stated single fly cast only and no bungs. There was a good hatch of buzzers and the fish were definitely on them. I found it really hard to keep the one fly in the right water collum. Chopped and changed my tippet length but in the end lost confidence and ended up pulling lures even though I knew this wasn't the best method on the day.
What would you suggest when limited to a single fly when buzzer fishing and not being able to use a bung or indicator
Hey Gareth. So it’s a challenge, no doubt about it. The buzzer will forever be in and out of the water column and the only way to get it nailed is to start with a long leader and reduce it down as you go until you hit the sweet spot. It looks like you’ve tried this based on what you’ve said, so your on the right track. More often than not, it’s easier to go with a more lightweight buzzer (cove’s pheasant tail buzzer) when having to adopt single fly method, as this fly will flutter more slowly through the columns than a modern resin buzzer will and therefore sit where you need it too. We’re there fish rising at all? If there were my preference would have been to go to a single dry instead as this takes out the problem of the water columns
The fish were rising early in the morning and I managed a few on a top hat suspended buzzer but by 10am the sun had pushed them down to about 4ft but still actively feeding. Other anglers were catching on the single buzzer. I think I just got frustrated as I struggled to keep the one fly in the right area for a long enough time so like I said lost confidence and switched methods which I know was wrong but I just got it in my head I was never going to catch with the one buzzer not being able to keep it at that 4 ft point long enough
Rhys have you fished thrunton before would love some tips for there.
I haven’t fished the north east sadly karl. On my list of to do’s however 🎣
Were uyou sing a Fario bung? Great video and content as usual. Any trips to the river planned?
Thanks. It was a homemade bung Paul. My local river doesn’t really come to life until about May so it will be then I’ll start some river videos 👍
Great video again, just wondering how you tie the corran buzzer if that’s the correct spelling?, And what do you use for the breathers ? Is it like the polypropylene para post stuff or something different?? I don’t have any buzzers with breathers in my buzzer box so these should fill some space ☺️
Any form of white yarn will suffice blackfur, I've caughton fluoro white Glo bright as well as polypropylene type materials. I don't think which type of white you choose makes a huge difference, as long as the size, profile and colour matches the food type at the time then you're good to go!
@@RhysFishes thanks for the reply I have tied a few up and will be hopefully trying them out over the weekend with this method and others 😊
New to buzzer fishing...what would your approach be same conditions but fish are deep and not wanting to chase lures???I tried straight lining to no avail.great content and you defo great angler.keep videos comming.
Straight lining can still work. You can just change the leader set up. I used to fish a lake where fish sat at 10ft feeding on buzzer. So when straight lining a three fly cast you’d have a leader of around 24ft. Your first fly would be at 10ft, second at 16ft, third at 24ft. It’s not for the faint hearted but it was the most consistent method we used to catch fish on buzzers at depth. You could also switch a floater out for a sink tip to help get the flies down.
Thanks for the tip,defo out of ma range ,I will just enjoy the day,awesome videos and fishing keep em up.great work.
@@jamesmcinnes4290 try a single buzzer under an indicator but set the depth to where you think the fish are. That can also work and require less complexity
Please could you do a video on how to tie the straight line method. One fly after the other etc I’m really struggling with it. I have tried tying straight to the next fly, tried to tie droppers but they just get in a tangle. Please help. Ps really enjoy your videos
Yes I can do that in the coming weeks 👍
@@RhysFishes wow thank you very much
Cheers Rhys.
Would you bother with a tapered leader when buzzer fishing? I hear mixed opinions with regards to turnover...
Cheers.
I don’t personally bother Lee, don’t see the need for it but understand the logic 🎣
Love the content!! It’s always very interesting and informative in my opinion. Does the Vision 6 wt stillmatic have a flexy tip? I’m in need of a 9’6” - 10’ 6 wt that I can occasionally use light tippet, down to 5x possibly even 6x, on the rare occasion that o see fit. I know this is a strange question being I’m talking about a 6 wt fly rod. Any information I would honestly appreciate !!! Thanks!!!😢
Thank you. I wouldn’t say the 6 is very tippy. I’ve fished 5X with it but had to be very careful, I think there are more flexible rods out there that would cushion the take better than the 6wt if you’re fishing very light. 🎣
@@RhysFishes thanks for the info!! I fish sage r8’s. A 10’ 4 wt and a 10’ 6 wt for Stillwater’s. The 4 wt is a decent dry fly Stillwater rod and the 6 wt is my main Stillwater rod. It’s a six but twenty years ago it would have been an 8 wt. I do run 5x on it at times but I have to be careful. Again, thanks!!
Da iawn Rhys
Diolch Steve
Great stuff Rhys. Any plans to head to Ellerdine?
Thanks Oldgold. I don't have any plans to travel that far currently. How's your season going?
@@RhysFishes well thanks. Done well with green and pink apps over winter, and more natural stuff the last few weeks. Done really well with a diawl type pattern, black cock hackle tail, black organza body, white goose biot cheeks cut to about 2 mm, orange thread head. Works great straight lining, washing line or static
Great video! What method were you using to detect strikes on the washing line rig? It looked like you struck well before the line moved.
With the washing line I applied mucilin to about 2ft of the end of the fly line. That ensured that it sat as high in the water as possible with a 3 fly cast on. Then it was just a cast of watching the end of that fly line for any movement. If it suddenly pulled away or twitched I would strike. Most of the fish that day didn’t rip the line out of your hands, which is why watching the end of the line and reacting quickly paid dividends. Hope that helps 🎣
Thanks for that explanation Rhys
Great videos, what brand fly line are you using.
Thanks
Thanks Byron. It’s a white floater that you can pick up from ‘new haylie fishery’. They’re on Facebook
What floating lines do you use Rhys?
Snowbee xs distance
New haylie floater
Rio bung floater
All great lines and have different purposes in my fishing
What's the fluorocarbon. Is it sf find it on amazon
Celtic Blob Company Fluorocarbon. You can locate the website on google :)
Hi mate, just out of curiosity, is it essential to have tippet on the end of your tapered leader? I've recently started fly fishing. And I've noticed pretty much every fly I throw on seems to be hitting the bottom and collecting weeds even after a few seconds! Where I want to fish like 2ft down? How do I correct this? I'd appreciate your help mate
I’m assuming your talking about a shop bought leader? If so, then yes and no. Yes - because you’ll gradually wear away at the tapered leader if you don’t supplement it with a few feet of independent leader. No - it can work without it but it’ll cause the issue that’s described above. If you’re snagging bottom and not moving the flies, the next step is to reduce the leader length 👍
How have you set that blob rig up with the buzzer?
I mention it at the start of the video :)
Well doen like to fish with you some day
Thank you Dan
Where can we buy the floating lines you are using?
New haylie fishery (on Facebook)
If this guy was on a catch and kill lake he’d be home in 4 casts 😅
😂😂😂 imagine!
Hi Rhys, I didn’t quite catch what floating line you were using?
Just seen others had asked - Newhaylie
Would you recommend? Low memory etc?
Straight as an arrow and inexpensive. That's why it's my go to these days.
@@RhysFishes thanks Rhys. Have messaged them but out of stock 😭
Noticed that you were the only angler sitting/kneeling to fish so lowering your profile against the skyline, do you think this contributed to your success on the day?
Partly yes. One of those fish took in very close and I doubt he would have taken the fly so confidently had I been stood up and walking around on the platform 🙂
It looks like the company that fabricates the 'Cadarn' fly tying vice is out of business, no website that exists....?
avonengineering@yahoo.com
I can't understand any of the important words you say due to your english accent. I imagine others have a similar issue.. i like your videos bc i take notes for later but idk what ur saying. Maybe add text boxes for the name of the flies (the odd ones that aren't ubiquitous)
There’s a subtitle option available from RUclips 🙂
Whenever I see northern European fly fishermen fishing in pool size "lakes", I feel sincerely sorry for them. Does the concept of undivided public land exist in these countries? Can they just park their car and go fishing lakes and rivers in the middle of nowhere? Does in the middle of nowhere public land exist in England?
Sadly it does not. All running water is club run and requires a memebership / fees or a waiting list. Lakes or small stillwaters are a norm for us and form a strong proportion of the fishing that we do in the UK (at a price). There’s some misconception where people think that these are stockies which will take a standard dog nobler or lure and take little skill to catch. But what people fail to understand is that catch and release forms a huge proportion of these successful fisheries. And by design you could be attempting to catch a fish that has wised up and been caught several times before. Blanks are regular and it isn’t a reflection of a basic anglers skill but actually because they’re fishing for pressured fish who don’t succumb easily. Sometimes you’ll watch a video and see somewhere do really well and make it look easy.
That doesn’t mean it’s easy, but that the angler has worked hard to find a nuance or method that even the most wary trout will succumb to on any given day.
Hope that helps 😊
@@RhysFishes I feel truly sad. You deserve better. You show genuine interest and motivation to better the techniques of fly fishing. I wish you the best.
