Loved the vid. Could you do a how to vid/tutorial for swinging spiders? What gear do you use leaders, tippet how many flies? Thanks again for the great vid.
Hi mate 👍🏻nice video you inspired me to try something diferent than a pikefly fishing 😅 what line do you use intermediate or sinking? Thanks👊 sub from me 👍🏻🎣
@@FeildsportsNI brilliant what a fish for your 1st on the Faughan . Can’t wait to get at them again this year hopefully we get a good run of fish and nice water
Hi there, just found you and subscribed, congratulations on reaching 200 subs… As someone who only uses Barbless, I agree with other comments, kinder on the fish, less hassle when they come out in the net and don’t hurt as much when they catch you in the back of the ear on a windy day… these are some cracking fish and just as frustrating when they pop off as those we have this side of the water… Good luck.
@@FeildsportsNI can hear them pluck and see them sticking mate. Multiple times. Maybe not crushed enough eh 😂 not having a dig just giving a bit of advice. Barbless work just as good i
Hard to get it right crushing the barbs had crushed a few of them too much and it can end with a snapped hook if it gets snagged or a decent fish takes it
@@FeildsportsNI Yes, I’ve been doing a bit of research on this with a view to starting sea fly fishing myself. Do you make your own or is there a source you would recommend?
@jimisherwood2632 Fulling Mill Los Roques Minnow Green, that was the fly I was using in the video but if I'm targeting pollock I'd usually use a sandeel imagination or a clouser minnow. I tie alot of my flies myself too
@@FeildsportsNI i was still gettin them last week mate but i was kinda glad to see so many in this year been a while since they where like that near me
When you fish downstream you typically lightly hook the fish as you can’t set it like you could in upstream that’s why you lost the fish essentially pulling it out of its mouth.
@@FeildsportsNI look at the counter numbers a joke my river mulcair has being abused but some how is hold ing on runs v poor this year but looks like some fish are runing now ,fish have ran it almost every day since July but numbers low no massive run and fish seem so small
The wide camera lens makes it look like I pulled far more than I did, I could see it was wrapped up in a small twig sometimes a gentle flick will get it out othertimes a decent yank will snap the twig
