A fly fishing channel that covers my exploits fishing for grayling, trout, salmon, bass and pike. A prime focus is fishing on the Welsh Dee but it also includes other Uk rivers and a number of reservoirs: Llyn Brenig, Stocks Reservoir and Llyn Trawsfynydd.

Nice session Andrew and that is a lovely beat to fish. I have had plenty of dryfly action on the Berwyn beat, but now I have to put my rods away for a couple of months after a hip operation. Tightlines.
Great to hear you enjoyed the video and have been having some good dry fly fishing on the Dee. I hope your operation goes well and it doesn't keep you away from the river too long. Tight lines, Andrew
Very interesting outcome adapting this method and in the daytime. Possibly worth a serious try at Chirk Argoed and Newbridge downstream of you...Havent been out since end of May....bit of colour in the water?
Good video. Interested that you said that you were fishing for sea trout and then caught several. What made you think that you would catch sea trout instead of brown trout?
Been looking through your website and it's massively informative, so thank you for taking the time for putting it together. I am planning on taking my son up to Llangollen on Friday afternoon fly fishing for 1st, he is the fisherman, me not. Is there beat you would recommend, ideally from the bank or very shallow wading in wellies for him. He will be fishing for trout. Thanks
The upper beat has a few pools that can be fished from the bank, Dee Farm, The run above the glide pool, Pipe pool, Horseshoe Falls pool. hop this helps, Andrew
your video's SEO score is very bad. As a result, your channel does not grow. To grow your channel you need to do channel SEO. RU-vid SEO strategies, you can improve your video's visibility, attract more viewers, and ultimately grow your channel.
I normally cover the water in front of me with 3 or 4 cast then take a couple of steps upriver and repeat, until I’ve fished the whole pool. Hope this helps, Andrew
I was fishing about 3ft from the bank on the rock ledge. You normally need a point fly with a 4mm tungsten bead to get down in the fast water there. Then you can fish small size 16 flies on the droppers with 1,5 or 2mm beads. I hope this helps, Andrew
Good video thank you. I’m watching on a mobile phone and apart from the last fish can’t see the takes. Are you watching the end of the fly line or do you feel the takes?
Fun bit is working out which of at least four River Derwents this is. Not that difficult, but for the wider audience I think it would be a courtesy to give some indication.
You not fishing the river wye near Rumney. As I lived in New Tradegan 25 years ago, court plenty of 2lb+ Grayling Chub up to 5lb . If you can get thow all of the trout 😅
Ahh. Enjoyed that little vid mate, subbed. As a lad we called mayfly time duffers fortnight as it was supposed to be the time to get the known big boys out. Never worked for me but was always fun.
Hi Mark, nice video, do you which this spots are belong to? I checked with RASAAA the spots before the viaduc are not marked in our map? Any advices? Cheers see you around the Dee
did you put squirmy on point ? also is it at all possible to show your spots on a map? hopeing to get on the top part of dee by forestry carpark next week, have you fished this and any suggestions would be great. cheers
Usually, I fish at Llandderfel, near Bals, when the river is running off. Best fished when the Bala gauge is below 0.5m. Also, the Corwen beats above where the Alwen joins should fish OK when the Bala gauge is below 0.5m.
Beat Map link which has the country park pools on it I fished in the video www.llangollen-maelor-angling.com/pdf/Maelor%20Angling%20Trevor%20section.pdf
Hi Mark, the level was 0.85m on the Manley Hall gauge. Currently, it's 1.1m and dropping slowly at Manley Hall, which is still a little too high. When it gets to <0.9m you can fish a few spots on the Country park and also Duncan's Pool from the right bank. If we don't get much rain it should be fishable in those places by Tue. More rain is forecast for Wednesday, so likely to rise again. I hope this helps, Andrew
Thanks Andrew, that is very helpful. I always look at the the Corwen gauge. I'll start looking at Manley going forward. I think I'll try and get out on Tuesday. Fisheries are fine but you can't beat a day on the river. I have been considering the tributaries of the Dee that the Corwen club control but I don't know enough about them really. @@hawker-overend5404
Love the video I think it was on that stretch when they held the World Championships in 1990 and everyone was in shock at the Czech nymohing method being used
Hiya Andrew, great informative video,, I have just joined Maelor/llangollen angling with the £88 yearly membership…. Does that now allow me access to fish?? Or do I have to now book and pay for day tickets when I want to fish?? Website for club is a little confusing 🤷♂️🙈 thanks in anticipation,,, Mark ( fished with my father on the available fly only beats about 20years ago…..
Hi Andrew,, one of the best instructional videos yet. Really good to see exactly what you were doing with a good narrative. Looking forward to seeing the results of the rig working. Tight lines, Iain.
I had a quick look at the Alness last September on the way to Brora - the Association water looks nice and the Novar fishings higher up as well but more ££'s - it's a spate river too so tricky when having to book a trip too far ahead.@@hawker-overend5404
