The lovely pink flowers are Rosebay Willowherb (AKA Fireweed) Pro tip; when brashing your way through a wood with a fishing rod carry it butt first - much less likely to break the tip.
Fill the inside of your boots with newspaper or kitchen roll and leave overnight, the more you pack in the better. It's not perfect but gets the insides loads drier. Don't use tissue or toilet roll, it's not strong enough so falls apart when you try to remove it 👍
Jam your boots with newspaper when u take them off for the day mate. Thatll sort the wet boots for next day. Lovin yir work, and lovely family. Great vid❤
Ahh mate its so good to see you and your family enjoying the camper and the scenery and the fishing. I've always said fishing isn't always about the fish its the relaxation in nature and making memories.
@@adventurefishingukthere is only 1 lake in Scotland all the rest are LOCHS .if ever I go below border ,I make an effort to pronounce places properly 🤔🐟
@hughjarse2909 Loch is the Scottish name for Lake. It means the same thing. I wouldn't go to Italy and call every lake a Lago, because I'm English and will use my native language 🤷♂️
Lovely video,, pink flowers are rose Bay willow herb or fire weed , elephant hawk-moth food plant , if you look enough you can find the caterpillars, very large n look like elephant trunks with eyes on the head end !
@@adventurefishinguk its safe if you know what your doing . I'll try tagging you on insta . Ive heard from gamekeepers and forrestry commision workers that eastern europeans are hammering the galloway forrest and taking every fish they catch 😖😔😡.
Am so jealous, something I would love to do fishing in some of the most remote parts of Scotland nice video. The pink flowers are called Rosebay Willow herb or fire weed Good luck 👍
Great video once again, can't wait for more adVANtures The pink flowers are fireweed, the emerging shoots of which are edible and taste a bit like asparagus
I'd rather the rain than the midgies mate. They are a right bastard to deal with. Hope you enjoy Scotland. I'm in the North/ East of Scotland and love it.
This video is local to me. The waterfall is good for a wee swim on a warm summers evening. Could show u some more wee lochs for trout/pike etc if ur up this way again 👌
I’d absolutely love a recommendation for somewhere to try for pike if you could! I’ve heard Scottish pike fishing can be great, unfortunately I’ve never had the chance to give it a go
Wonderful upload mate.. containing all the reasons I moved to Scotland 3 years ago! If you get the chance, shore fly fishing for Pollack on Skye is highly recommended too!
When I first started fishing, I commented on one of your videos, you said wait till I get into lure fishing, you was right, such a thrill, so enjoyable! Probably spent too much on different lures already though lol
@@adventurefishinguk it's the bright colours and different looks, I can't help but keep looking and buying more, really want one of those savage gear snakes you used a while back, they look awesome!
youre lad will love these adventures an put some news paper in ya boots pack it in to dry em ..you need a boat now mate i got one 4 months back awsome as i can fish were you cant from the bank
I love the Scottish music at the beginning 😊apparently the Scottish midges shut down a caravan site years ago they were so bad! Could be good for fly fishing?
Great video, loving the van and what a wicked brown trout to start with! The pink flowers look like rosebay willowherb to me, a lovely native plant and the preferred habitat for the elephant hawk moth so always worth looking around to see if you can spot one of them as they're stunning!
The flowers are rosebay willow herb when they pollinate its like clouds of cotton wool that come off them. Welcome to Scotland. Plenty more dramatic scenery here even more so in the highlands.
Great video mate. I love the sound of water, and waterfall sounds were TOPS!!!! Keep up the good work, you may need to buy a few pair of boots if you plan on fishing every day. Enjoy. Great to see you enjoying the journey with your family and living in each moment. Very special times to look back on.
Really enjoyed this video. As soon as I saw that waterfall I recognised exactly where you were fishing. I go camping around that area each summer It’s a cracking wee burn there’s wild trout all over that small river as well and the occasional salmon parr. There’s another wee river further down it runs into which is great. Loads of deep holes. If you want to know other places around that area just let us know. Cracking video as always 👌👌
Thanks for watching! yeah i'd really appreciate a few pointers on the area, It was absolutely incredible. I can't wait to go back and fish it again probably in March 👍
Glad that you're getting to use the camper and are out with the family. What fantastic scenery, pity about the weather though. Do you ever eat any of the trout that you catch?
Mate what an adventure! Loving the van life and ofc nothing wrong with a bit of Rosé 😂 fantastic trout with mad markings. Crazy how big Alfie is now! 😊 tight lines George!
would be glad if you would someday travell to oman , salalah in its khareef season , its wonderfull out here and its rains most of the time , perfect for a vacation and has less but wonderfull fishing spots
@@adventurefishinguk you have lots of lochs in the trossachs area that have pike perch and trout in them stunning area i fish lake of monteith there but also love the wild fishing you have loch baa and achlaise that are opposite sides of the road as you head up to glen Coe loads of trout and some good perch to 4 pound in them free to fish aswell
Nice one George, just a quick message to say you’re doing a great job with your channel and I reckon you’re doing a great job with your family. I really hope your son likes fishing because if he does he’s going to have some fun! Keep having smiling and best of luck with everything.
It seems everywhere you go the brown trout jump on your lures. That's great do you ever keep them and fry them up with some chip? They are delicious. Maybe on one of your videos you can cook one up. Great video
I find the best boots are always Army surplus there's plenty of Army Surplus shops online. One pair i got where Russian Para Boots they had real wool lining and where very warm and water proof and protect your ankles. One pair i had over 10 years.
Hi my name is mason I was at the south angeling centre where you buy your fishing stuff I was speakinh to joe he is really nice I gave him my mums phone number and he said he will try and arrange we could go fishing keep up the good work your videos are amazing 😁
Hope you enjoyed Scotland pal. You are always welcome Also give the Tasmanian devil lure a try when fishing the great Scottish lochs it seems to be deadly
Has the little one caught or helped reel in any fish? Earlier they get an interest the better in my opinion as I'd hope in future they continued the tradition and get out into nature and healthy exercise.
Absolutely loving the content bud, been binging all day 🫣. Looks like as much fun that I might have to put the fly rod down and grab a spinner 😂. What’s the name of that waterfall would love to check it out?
I fished that area 4 years ago...was up there for 3 weeks...creepy noises at night.. but decent fishing.. the area with the lilly pads is good for bobber fishing (not my favourite type of fishing) . In Canada we call them speckled trout..that was a nice one...good on the grill. Sorry, i thought that was Dunkeld...😂
Fáilte gu Alba. A small point, but there's only one lake in Scotland, The Lake of Menteith. Everything else you'll fish is a loch, lochan or reservoir. Beannachd leat.
@@alison8526 aye. fáilte gu alba means welcome to scotland, and beannach leat is good luck. a lochan is a small mountain water. not big enough to be a proper loch, but too big to be a pond.
Stuff some newspaper in your boots overnight night, it’ll help dry them out, use dubbing or beeswax to waterproof them. You’re living the life, top filming
Soz Alison it deffo dosny 👍👍👍😜🏴🦕🦄😁🤞✌️ Skin so soft Avon Some times does the trick To stop itch your own saliva dab a tiny bit on your midge bite take itch away😊
Look on the maps fantastic lochs in the highlands the bigger lochs hold good size trout and pike .follow the streams of these loch have great joy with smaller trout and then these streams will lead you into remote lochs for pike be prepared to hike .tip for 1 places is glascarknock
