Another quality video, almost mirrors my last visit to a small stillwater, for the first time i set up 2 rods, floater (bung and buzzers) and intermediate (small beadheaded Cat's Whisker). Nothing on the floater with the bung, even though there was fly life coming off the water and the occasional fish taking off the top, mmy success in the 5 hrs i was there came from the small lure, cast out, count to 10 and retrieve, 6 to the net, 3 follows and countless nips and pulls. Funny old game fishing, still it keeps us interested and the reason it's called fishing and not catching! Tight lines all!
"Changing for Success" excellent advice Lindsay! Couple of guys I fish with fish the same fly in the same place with the same method all the time because they have caught a couple of fish doing that. I call the "fishing in the past" rather than assessing the current situation and "fishing in the present". Even if the fly and presentation are correct at the moment I'm always watching the conditions closely as as change in wind, sunlight, forage (nymph to emerger to dry fly) .etc can require a change in tactics to remain successful. Cheers and tight lines Lindsay!
@@lindsayiflyfish yes, guilty as charged! LOL! My cure for compliancy is to make a point of cutting off my fly every 20 to 30 minutes or so. Before retying I stop to consider whether I should continue as is or change size/color or change patterns. I usually change patterns when I retie as I believe the fish get accustomed/conditioned to a pattern if they see it to much and something fresh or different suits their fancy better.
hi Lindsay, finally a video on small stillwater from the shore. I really like it ❤️ and it's very technical. It is very little that I practice it here in Italy and I try to learn from the videos. Is it possible to make other videos on techniques and dressings? ATB Max 👍 🇮🇹
Great Video. I fished my local still water on Monday and had them on a bung, stripping, buzzers…. I tend to give a fly 10 casts max and if there is no interest, I swap it. I also move often, I can probably appear a bit of a fidget. On Monday, I too must’ve lost double figures. I just couldn’t sink the hook I have no idea what camera you use but the picture quality and the footage is spot on. Crystal clear.
Thanks pal, I use a mixture of cameras and recently (Got it for Christmas) added a Go-Pro Hero 10 to my collection. The rest of the stuff can be seen here. ruclips.net/video/tTQiKua3hsA/видео.html

Getting stuck in a repetitive pattern same fly same presentation retrieve line. Is a lazy trap too many anglers fall into. Well it worked on that one. Only counts for that one. To change the presentation by simply adding five or ten seconds for the fly to settle slightly deeper, or variations to the retrieve. Depending on reaction or lack of it change colour size or pattern. Then line density. Then move and repeat. Thirty feet could make the difference. The more water you cover the more fish you are tempting. It is far better to cover many fish a couple of times. Than to try fifty plus different flys to the same handful of fish. The fish will always get bored first.
Lindsay, as the waters at Albury EState are all put & take, I assume that you obtained special permission to do catch & release while you were filming. Might be worth clarifying this for your subscribers, because if Cameron catches someone releasing fish he is likely to impose a lifetime ban, and “saying that they saw you release fish on your video” is likely to cut no ice.
Dave you are correct it is strictly catch and kill at Albury. I have special permission from The fishery manager to release fish whilst filming videos. I do normally mention this but after reviewing this video I have failed to do so. It would not go well for the sport despite the realities of catching, killing and eating fish if the anti fishing lobby were to latch onto videos showing this practice.
Lyndsey...I don't know if you ever get back home to Scotland....but the time of year at New haylie above Largs....your pal rhys will tell you all year dry fly fishing...but especially this time...size 14 and 16s yellow owls and blacks...hammering fish...single fly...even the top hat...size 16 ...up on Tues...yellow owl was doing the biz...then late on changed to a size 14 hares lug shipmans bang...and taking my 14 black buzzer on the dropper 5ft up from point...got a brown trout about 9 to 10lb...went to Woodburn at the Campsie Hills on Sunday...my mate single top hat...me straight lining 3 buzzers...taking hard...brilliant fishing at its best...keep up your videos...at least I can understand you...that yin rhys....hard work lol🤣🤣🤣🐟🐟🐟🐟
Thank you for that gorgeous sight and video Lindsay. Glad to see your face.
My pleasure!
Great video Lindsay love the tips
Glad it was helpful!
Great video! Winter is finally leaving western Canada and time to leave the bench and enjoy some open water. Cheers and tight lines!
Tight lines for your coming season Jay.
Very helpful and enjoyable video - thanks Lindsay!
You are so welcome!
What was the song that played during the video?
@@petergrace1491 The one starting at 4:18 is called 'Face' by Alex Kehm.
Lindsay, very nice video, love the song, the images, all… really spot on. Thank you for sharing with us.
Glad you enjoyed it!

It is common sense but we are all guilty of going through the motions sometimes.

Good video Linsay, Can i ask what knee and shin guards you use looking for a pair when Fishing the Rivers thanks Martin :)
They are called GMC but unfortunately they are no longer made. Its a shame as mine have seen better days.
@@lindsayiflyfish Ok no problem thanks for reply :)

Hi Max, I will surely try pal. 👍
Great advice as always Lindsay, one other thing I do is to radically change the fly size. Cheers
Very true! Going very small or very big often works a treat.
Great Video.

Great video Lindsay. What was the music track playing in the background
Which one there were a few that I sampled?

@@lindsayiflyfish Thanks for that Lindsay. You're right, its way better than most of the free stuff.
Great vid, great advice. Keep moving, keep changing. It would be boring, if it was too easy
Absolutely!
another great video full of info and you make it look easy
John fishing is mostly easy fishing and filming 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ 🤣
Getting stuck in a repetitive pattern same fly same presentation retrieve line. Is a lazy trap too many anglers fall into. Well it worked on that one. Only counts for that one.

We all do it Mick and sometimes that’s fine but if you want to get the best out of the day ringing the changes will help.
Cracking!

@@lindsayiflyfish Thanks for clarifying Lindsay. I understand the reason behind C&R while filming.
Great video but.....
We do want the bloopers and swearing outtakes
A compilation video would be good
Lol, you really don’t, sailors be leaving the fishery! 🤣
Ooooooh there’s so much swearing! 😂😂😂

I am desperately trying to carve out some time to come up and make a few videos. 👍
Top hat? A foam fly?
Have you ever fished Middleton?
