This just popped up on my suggested videos thought I recognised your face! I’m the fisherman who popped down for a few hours that evening! Great video’s keep em coming 👍
Top angling dude. Good decision to move on to the north. Good reading of the water too. Looks like you got your mojo back there. Looking forward to fishing up your way with Stokoe next season
I enjoyed your video very much. I’ll be using my own 13ft Shakespeare Oracle around Fowey soon trying for whatever will take. What fly did the Tortillas take? Best wishes.
Hi Rob, absultely brilliant videos! Looking to do some salmon fishing maybe late August, Sept or Oct on on of the Tynes? Would love your advice for a once a year Salmon fisherman..
Hi, glad you're enjoying the videos. Any of the day ticket Tyne beats will give you a good chance of a fish in September and October. My personal choice would be Styford because I like the variety of pools. Warden or Chesters also offer lovely fishing. If you are brave enough to leave the booking to the last minute then I would fish the south Tyne if there is any water as it's a brilliant river though there isn't as much day ticket access.
Nice water that for daytime sea trouting .plenty of colour and faster the better, i usually stick to stoats tail tubes in various sizes as I've stateted before, sedburgh anglers stretch on the lune is full of um at the moment. And just like salmon don't strike ,let em take line ,as little resistance as possible on the line .
Some lovely sea trout there. I know the feeling of being only a mile or so from a 30lber being caught. Happened to my this year on the findhorn. That colour of water reminded me of the findhorn that river must run through some peat somewhere.
Yes it runs from Alston moor which is all peat moorland. If that 30lber came from Drynacchen then I know the guy who caught it. The one on the border esk was caught less than 1/2 a mile below me that day. Sadly the stars didn't align.
@abakerslife yes it was Drynachan I was fishing at pollochaig with cornish Chris the fish and heard about it the next day. Chris lost two salmon that day.
Apparently they weighed it and it was 26 but the ghillie was very keen on it being a 30! I'm keeping an an eye on availability for next year as I want to have a few days there.
Hi Mate, What fishing ticket did you buy? If you bought a Langholm ticket you should not be fishing from that bank... its privately owned. Yes i know it fishes better from that side but you are poaching unless you have permission of course.
Hmm, remember that seatrout generally likes more speed across the river than the salmon does and they tend to stand in calmer water most of the time. If you put a swimmingmask on and some big paddles on your feet and swim through a couple pools you will find out what i mean pretty fast. idk how many 100 dives or swims call it what you want i have here in norway but the seatrouts are always in the calmer areas in the pool even in very low and warm water conditions. many will say it's because the salmon pressure them out of the good spots but even in pools without a single salmon they still stand in the calm spots.
I think its generally different here in the UK. I fish highland spate rivers and have almost exclusively caught sea trout in the main flow of the river. One of the best times to get them is at night where they are frequently recorded moving up the pool and lying right in the head, in the main, faster riffle. perhaps the freshness of the fish and how long its been in the river might make a difference?
Here it is the other way around, both salmon and seatrout move down towards the tail at night no mather if its 2 km from the sea or 100 km from the sea and sealiced or VERY dark coloured fish.@@rupertfraser7990
That's a good day's fishing on some lovely fly water....and a super video as usual. Well done.
Many thanks, glad it tickled your fancy.
Great video and account of your trip, lovely Sea Trout there well done!
Many thanks!

Small world, glad you're enjoying the videos.
Love your content ! Making me want to pack my stuff and head out for a trip. Nice sea trout, lovely rivers, great banter. Tight lines 🙌
Many thanks....get packed and get out there. Plenty of fish about at the moment.
Some gorgeous looking spots to fish there. Well done on the sea trout.
Many thanks, I'm only just starting to realise how lucky I am to have some great rivers relatively close to home.
Very nice. Looks a little like my homewater in Halmstad Sweden. Only bigger river.
Hope your home river has been kind to you this year.
Quality fishing mate enjoyed the video look forward to watching more. Tight lines bud
Cheers, fladnyou enjoyed the video. Tight lines to you too.
love it. just the sound of the water.
It is the sound of music
O yes another great video and congrats to the fish 👊. I can't wait for the next video
Many thanks, glad you're enjoying them.
Some beautiful sea trout, congrats 👏🏻
Many thanks 👍
well do you, love watching your vids👍👍👍
Many thanks, glad you're enjoying them.

Many thanks, it's funny how confidence seems to play a role in whether you catch or not.
Another cracking video Rob , love these , Lambley can be fantastic when conditions are right 👍👍🥃
Many thanks, I could have done with being there the day before but how typical is that of salmon and seatrout fishing!
Every time I went to Lambley this year I was a day late !!
I enjoyed your video very much. I’ll be using my own 13ft Shakespeare Oracle around Fowey soon trying for whatever will take. What fly did the Tortillas take? Best wishes.
Good luck. I honestly can't remember but it was probably a small black and silver tube fly with a small orange cone.
That's a day of good fun so good stuff:)
Thanks, it actually turned out to be a very good year for seatrout in my part of the world.

Good to know that there are plenty of fish this year. Thanks for the pointers.

@abakerslife still a very decent fish. At drynachan or pollochaig?
Drynachan- it was highly recommended
Well done what fly did you use?
Thanks, it was a 1/2 inch plastic tube, possibly a cascade
How difficult is it to cast like that?
It's not too difficult to be able to spey cast but it is bloody hard to do it well. I'm far from an expert.
Hi Mate,
What fishing ticket did you buy?
If you bought a Langholm ticket you should not be fishing from that bank... its privately owned.
Yes i know it fishes better from that side but you are poaching unless you have permission of course.
Hi, it's a Tyneside Angler's Syndicate beat of which I am a member.
Hi Mate,
i meant the beat on the Border Esk?
My bad for not making it clear 🙂
@@abakerslife
The left bank at Langholm is leased by TAS hence all the TAS private fishing signs.
No apology for questioning the man's integrity?
What rod and line, are you using
Shakespeare Oracle switch #7/8 with a Barrio switch line (#6/7).
Hmm, remember that seatrout generally likes more speed across the river than the salmon does and they tend to stand in calmer water most of the time.

One of the best sea trout rivers where I’m from has zero to no flow on it.
yeah they dont normally enjoy a lot of current.@@Andriasocianain
