Andy heads off to the river Usk in South Wales in the hope of some early season dry fly fishing for brown trout. With the potential for a hatch of the famous March Brown flies, as well as Large Dark Olives, Andy is confident that he'll get some epic dry fly rises over the two days. However, it doesn't always go to plan, so having the ability to throw Jig Streamers is really important too at this early season time of year.
The question is, will the hatch of March Browns happen, or will Andy have to throw the jig streamers? Enjoy: Early Season Brown Trout Fly Fishing The River Usk In South Wales - Dry Fly & Jig Streamers

Definitely worth sharing, I’m all in for streamer content! That first trout was a cracking start to your season too.

@tomhammerton7697 2 года назад

That was a quality fish on the dry fly, well done Andy! Pretty good start to the season - you landed all the fish you hooked and only missed one take. You've got to love those dodgy weather forecasts. It was Youth Mentored Trout day on Saturday and the forecast said snow in the morning and clearing in the afternoon so Sam and I planned around that. Of course it was sunny in the morning and we fished in snow squalls in the afternoon. We only lasted a couple of hours till we were frozen, but we landed a few, so day#1 mission accomplished.

@alexanderjoyce3305 2 года назад

It's great you are so gentle with the fish when you let them go. I can't stand seeing videos with trout being flung back in! Enjoy your videos, cheers for sharing.

@shortcircuit7310 2 года назад

Definitely glad you did the video Andy, and it gives a true reflection of early season fishing. Appreciate the content because it is so "real" and not dolled up for RU-vid. And this time of the year, on a day with little or no hatch three fish is a good result, particularly because two of them were very decent fish.

@IBandAndyFishing 2 года назад

Cheers Liam, that's sort of how I felt about this one. On day two I get a decent hatch and a quite different result!

@seanb5007 2 года назад

@willduckworth4789 2 года назад

Very nice thanks. Don't worry about 'not enough fish' for a vlog. I blank so often (4 already this season) that it's reassuring to know that you don't always catch double figures. In fact it would be great to sea a day's fishing without a catch!

Great video Andy . I was there on Thursday, The MB hatch started early around 9 am , it was bubbling with surface activity until around midday then it just switched off . Then I couldn’t buy a fish. Still a beautiful place to be and just nice to be out on the river again.

@IBandAndyFishing 2 года назад

Wow, 9am MB hatch, I've never heard of that before, that's really cool. Maybe that's it then, I just missed it, as I didn't get on the river until around midday.It is good to shake the cobwebs off isn't it?!

@ianfirkins6460 2 года назад

Nice fish. Amazing isn’t it? They were hammering maggots on the Dove on last day of coarse season (had 21 brownies while I was grayling fishing) but now they’ve gone all coy! Must have a go at streamer fishing 😉

@DavidSmith-fk3xb 2 года назад

Hi Ian, thanks for the post. Always found it a lot more difficult to fish with a fly in waters where the fish have been fed and now tend to avoid them during Grayling season. Hopefully the trout will switch on soon. Fished high up on the Dove system last weekend and caught plenty of grayling, dry and wet fly but no sign of a BT and this stretch is not fished with maggots. Have caught BT there at same time in previous years, so perhaps they are a little behind even though spring seems further forward this year. Tight lines.

Andy, what size do you do you streamers?

@DavidSmith-fk3xb 2 года назад

Hi Andy, thanks for the vlog and info within. I go to the Usk once or twice a year and have also experienced the changeable weather and fish behaviour. I've had some great days and some disappointing ones also; maybe this is part of the beauty of fishing this river. Just as a matter of interest, did you fish the beat where you were camped and if so did you cross the river before you started? Looking forward to seeing what happened on your second day, good luck for the rest of the season.

@IBandAndyFishing 2 года назад

Hi David, it's definitely just a product of the time of year, things can be really hit and miss this early in the season. I did fish where I was camped yes, there is a place to cross safely about a quarter of the way up the beat

@DavidSmith-fk3xb 2 года назад

@@IBandAndyFishing Hi Andy, thanks for the reply. I usually fish the same beat a couple of times a year, with a couple of friends. I'm the only one of us that has fished from the same bank that you started from, so am very pleased to get an indirect heads up from you on this. I'm usually fishing later in the year and this bank can get very overgrown with brambles and if the river is up a bit, offers far fewer safe routes of access so has elements of jungle warfare about it but I'm very encouraged that you have identified some very good water that can only be fished effectively from this side. I don't camp there, so I usually work my way down and up from the top of the beat. I'll look out for the crossing point when I'm next there. Thanks again for your valuable perspective.

@bigron8346 2 года назад

Hi Andy nice to see another great video! I bought a Sage 10.3 ft. 3 wt. rod could i use that for small streamers? Also can i use an indicator or use it with a dry dropper if i change spools and use regular 3 wt. Line? Please tell IB i was asking for her.
