River Tay! Roger that! On My Way! Ive never been so excited to see and experience a place... Ive only left my country 1x 35 yrs ago... Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'I'd ever have the opportunity to see and experience Scotland ... Let alone....Actually live there someday... Humbled to my core... I'm lovin all the content!
WOW! So you’re coming over to visit and then living in Scotland?! Wow fair play !!!! That’s class!! You’ll have a great time and you’ll be saying why didn’t I come 35 years sooner!!!
Cracking film of the mighty Tay👏 Looked like you had a great day out and that is the great part of this channel….fish everywhere! Thanks for sharing,Harry👏🎣👍
Great video , there is something awe inspiring walking the banks of the Tay , Tweed and Spey , Salmon are such a special fish . Just knowing they are in the river gives you goose bumps .Well done on releasing your salmon , hopefully it went on to spawn . Only salmon I've ever caught was when someone chucked me a can of John West .
They are so so special aren’t they! And couldn’t agree with you more about the goosebumps, something special about when they’re running and it just gets everyone going doesn’t it!!! Might be the year Jaques you never know!! 😀 thank you so much for watching as well!
Time to get grafting on these big rivers ..col water and floods to come..then the hard cold fo wade and casting the big lure and fly .. the hope flr that salmo salar arriving from their long journey..soon be Tweed Dee and Spey. April for me....and still cold
@@japanesefishingadventures absolutely going out tomorrow. Got myself some fox rage soft shads, and a little replica pike lure from Amazon! Wish me luck 🤞
Yes time for that 28 gram toby..rarely used.. and a good swivel.We arent all posh....I was there as a student in 1979..2 1/2 inch brown gold or black and yellow Devon has worked and will continue to Simon Artley Manchester
The "Dace"was the name for a dyed sprat fished with two hooks and a lead.Dace dont live in Scottish Rivers. These days its its big toby...often nowadays with a single hook.Kynochs and big rapalas and similar are also very popular ..usually from the boat.
Great to see you on the Tay Harry - great balance of respect and staying yourself - great privilege to fish those waters - Salmon are such great fish, such a shame we humans have buggered things up for em!
What a cracking video buddy and never seen anything like it. That would be my worst. Nightmare going down to my favourite fishing spot and seeing that many people walking down with all their gear 😂😂… well done on your catch as well and what a beautiful stretch of river. Top man and hope you and the family are all okay 🎣👍😁
Pahaha could you imagine if you saw that on the regular 🤣 it was like bloody Alaska! Haha! But aye it was all good fun and glad to be there it certainly was something different! Thanks for watching as always John! :D
Haha Its quite expensive from all accounts! Why I was there on opening day 😅 it’s very affordable for the day for the ceremony so we’ll worth looking into next year!
Great vid kid, 👍 Liked the salmon flash back 🔥, and a bit a history and other cultures doing what we've all done since "THE DAWN OF TIME".. now it's a "past TIME" ,,. A hobby... Now ya can make bags doin it 😂
Hahahaha nail on the head there mate! It’s mad how something we’ve done for years is being forgotten some what, mainly because of stocks but still!!! Frustrating. Thanks for watching mate :D
@@japanesefishingadventures keep traveling bud, when you get over here gime a shout and we'll keep ya sorted for some where to stay and hopefully atleast a 20lber 💯👍😎🤠🎣
@@japanesefishingadventures never salmon fished btw bud, brown trout and so called "course" (that's just a higher Archy and snobbery).. You just fished an opened salmon river for a few quid.... You get what I mean. All fish should be where they mena be and we can go down the rabbit hole of what fish aren't 🎣🎣🍃🌲🤠😎
the Tay is great river and very clean, it comes from the Highlands and is fed by several Lades...watch out for the undertow, the Tay has several points of huge undertow that seem to be calm, they look like lakes sat upon the river itself, you'd need a local to point them out, you get dragged by them...square-fucked, they won't send anyone to retrieve you...however, you can land many trout, more than you can eat, literally more than you can eat..the Salmon...don't work too hard, I'd say, let things turn in time, after spawn the males will basically throw themselves at you..try catching a pike, big old bastards, real hard to catch, very clever "The knife in the water"..good eating but rare to land, hugely strong for their size, made of muscle, you land one of those, you are either eating well or getting paid a pretty-penny
Love this knowledge and thank you for the general advice on the Tay! I did see a lot of undertones like that and did think you had to be careful! Bet at night it’s quite fun going after the sea trout haha! Thank you again sir and thank you for watching!
@@japanesefishingadventures I wouldn't know anything about sea-fishing...i only know the bits and places I know...looks like a hugely involved undertaking to me....where my family comes from, Stornaway..well, ask a ferryman from that area, they'll tell you there's only one way to berth...you have to go in backwards, turn the ship around and let the natural eddies pull you in to port, underneath those waters, and not that deep...there's these really sharp rocks, like blades, you need someone that knows those waters
Hi Harry, I’ll be fishing the Meikleour beat in week of the 20th for the second time around this year. Maybe, if you’re free, you’d like to take a couple of casts with me? (I’m coming from The Netherlands by the way) Shame I didn’t see you at the opening day, or we could’ve had a chat. Let me know if you’re available!
Hi Tom thank you for your comment and all the best on the Meikleour!! Hopefully there is a sprinter with your name on it! Sadly I’m actually off an adventure myself! (You’ll see on the channel so won’t give anything away! But I would have loved to have joined you! Sadly I’m going to struggle but have an amazing time and all the best!

Haha 😂 I spent the whole video saying it and there was nothing I can do - was honoured mind due 😅
Nice one mate
Thanks pal! 😃
Looks like you had a great day 🎣
You know what mate I certainly did 🤣 well and truly wrapped up in the occasion!
Those Go Outdoors lures cast like a dream. I've caught plenty of pollock using the sand eel lures from there.
Love it!! They are class aren’t they :D!!
Great video !! atb
Thanks pal and thank you for watching!
Great vid lad enjoyed that one.👏🏼 🎣, unfortunately no fish but looked a brilliant day out.
Thanks mate!!! Glad you enjoyed - superb day as you say nevertheless!!
Great to see you on the Tay Harry - great balance of respect and staying yourself - great privilege to fish those waters - Salmon are such great fish, such a shame we humans have buggered things up for em!
Thanks Mick, genuinely appreciate that because sometimes you wonder Yano! But glad you enjoyed and saw the balance :D
I was there a few months ago too! Had no luck at all.
That’s a shame :( early in the season
I guess though!!
