- Massive thanks to my very good friend and fellow youtuber @CF_Fishing for inviting me as a guest to this amazing spate river near Ballantrae, South Ayeshire, Scotland.
The River Stinchar is a river in South Ayrshire, Scotland. It flows south west from the Galloway Forest Park to enter the Firth of Clyde at Ballantrae, about 20 kilometres south-southeast of Ailsa Craig.
It was a VERY WET day with a rising river and terrible conditions, but we both managed to catch - and Theo had a good day out too!
Hi my name is Chris and my channel is called Cornish Chris the Fish. I am a Cornishman venturing out beyond the Duchy (of Cornwall) to experience life on the road full time touring in my Caravan Dalleth Arta, fly fishing for Salmon and vlogging my adventures. I am charting my salmon fly fishing adventures and will profile each fishery that I attend. I may even catch a few fish 😀. All views are my own good or bad.

Well done Chris
Cheers 🍻
Nice film Chris good to see Colin out there with you 😊
Thanks 👍 it was a wet but very fun day.
Nice catch 👍👍
Thank you very much!
Brilliant video Chris, great to see you visiting Ayrshire. Despite growing up in the area I’ve never fished the Stinchar. My friend used to be the ghillie at Dalrecoh beat.
Lovely couple of sea trout there well done 👍
Thanks Robert, first time for me on a west coast river, great location too 👍
Nice vid keep them coming.
A bit of advice. When fishing the fly around you are pulling it out too soon. There is every chance a fish has followed the fly around, so let it hang a few moments, then handline in gently for a yard or two in case it thinks the fly is trying to escape. After that you can pull in the running line quickly in preparation for the next cast. It is all part of the learning curve.
Thanks for the tips!
I see you were head over heals to start fishing 😂. Lovely couple of seatrout you had there very silver. Shame the salmon aren't playing this year.
Tell me about it 😒 i am quite clumsy, but you knew that anyway 👍
Excellent video Chris. Really enjoyed our day even if the weather was nasty. A couple of months earlier a day after rain on a falling river would be better. I did warn you about falling as well.😂 Well done on the wee finnock as well it was tough day. To top the day off my van got stuck in the soft field. Thanks to Chris my guest for hauling me out twice.😅
I had a fantastic day thank you for inviting me 👍
Nice to see some fresh Sewin (Sea-trout) so late in the season. They SEEM to have done relatively well this season overall. I hope it continues. Thanks for video !
Totally agree, thanks 😊
Well done!
Thanks 👍
I fished there a few years back in late autumn and caught a load of wee finnock, the biggest arounf 3lb. A great days sport. There were a few salmon caught, but as always, I should have been there yesterday. I love those slow black water rivers. Theyre equally menacing and promising, and every cast could be The One.
Very true Chris, a wet but fun day. Thanks for watching 👍
Nice one sir the fall brought you a bit of luck with a few small sea trout well done
You got that right! The ups and downs of fishing 🙄😀😀👍
Is it fall? hehe.. nice one :)
Yes, thanks if they made falling over whilst fishing an Olympic Sport i would be a gold medallist 🤣👍
Nice fish! No net?
Thanks, i didn't think it was worth unslinging the salmon gye net on my back 😀👍
why would you put a fish in a net ,the water was high and the banks wet grass
