As with any form of lure fishing, a sudden burst of speed will often induce a strike from a following fish. As stated, don't slow down or stop. For pike that don't take using this technique, I would let the lure drop below the fish, and lift it back up. This can induce savage takes, in inches of water against the bank, and I don't see why it wouldn't work for trout.
2 olive apps(green machine ) as we call them ,cortland blue , short fast pulls 💥💥💥 pulled me out the shit on a number of occasions ,the blues love them also
Bought half a dozen of these flies and never used them , great video gives me a boost to go out and give them a try.. thanks Rhys for another really informative and well filmed video...
Rhys I tie a pink worm with legs made from a pink and orange barred rubber which I think is a silli legs material, or maybe something I got for pike flies. Fluo pink body, works well pulled quickly in the top couple of feet, or sink and draw. Not so well under a bung for this one where I find black works well.
Another top video Rhys, are you going to do more videos on picking floating, sinking lines etc. the last vid on intermediate was super helpful, a line I never knew I needed.
Great lure I used them at chatton trout lakes in Northumberland I had 16 trout lost as many the olive one seemed to work better on a floating line a cross the wind pulling back fast
Hahaha. Watched this last weekend and fished them on four outings on our syndicated loch this week 6 -5 -10 -3. So average of 6 per outing. Maybe not record breaking until you see the amount of 0s in the catch record. That's with a red one, waiting for more flexifloss to show up.
loving all your videos rhys,,,,watched them all lol very informative and even ordered a fly tying vice,,going 2 start tying a few of your patterns that u showed on your tutorials,,please keep the vids coming!!!!!
Wow Rhys! What a slick video, it had fantastic visuals and the standard top content. Going to Lechlade next week again and will give the App Worm a go.
That boy would be a take on freelining a lobworm as I did as a boy 40 years ago still the best way to catch trout. But rules and regs kill the fun out of fishing these days. Valleys Wales ta
Great video. One thing that confuses me though is how a 12 foot leader with the worm would fish. Surely off a very slow retrieve it would still sink considerably? Or is this fly really that light (unlike a squirmy?)
Apps are relatively light but like anything, it does depend on what hook you use, the length of the worm itself amongst other things. An inch and a half either side on a size 10 hook is my preference and that's based largely on the original (don't change what's not broken)
Rhys how can I sneak a couple of fish during the winter on my club lake and they don’t stock from September till March but we can still fish it. Quite a deep lake 25acres any good ideas fella
I like how all you knew guys like using a float. That's not fly fishing ,I could use a spinning rod and do the same thing and two Flys should be illegal you call those Flys
