How to fly fish UK Rivers- The River Usk 

Great advice on wading.

Really enjoyed it.Thanks.

Nice work Lewis!

So happy I live in Scotland we do not have rod licence here, also, the river I fish (Devon) is only 17 pounds a whole season with a 4 fish a day catch limit. Great video by the way.

my best brown trout from the river usk was 4 1/2 pounder , my best from the river taff was 6 pound ! i would actually rate the usk a better river though , and by the way , i ve had 3 dace over 2 pound , from the usk !!

Telling people to take care when wading then running down the river like linford christie isn’t probably the best idea

A fly rod and reel, a few spares and fly boxes in you waiscoat Those were the days . He looks like he is on a two week yomp!!

which beat of the Usk was this filmed on?? Looks great!!

Is that the shakespeare agility rise fly rod being used?

Fishing in the UK is strange. Here in Victoria, Australia we only require a fishing licence and with this we can fish basically any body of water that we want.

So much for moving slowly,,,,

Can you do lure fishing on the Usk?

Definitely that easy I live in usk and can’t fish it it’s to menny rules regulations that’s why I just go there and fish it I mean who made some one boss of a free stretch of water ?

did he perhaps not think that some people yank their hook out of the tree because they cant fucking reach it? lol

It's always enjoyable watching people catch fish, but unfortunately that's all this video is, really. There was nothing on the type of of tackle to use, the choice of fly, whether to fish upstream or downstream etc, so the title is actually quite misleading.

2lb Dace??? Dont think so. can't you tell a dace from a chub?? If it was a 2lb dace -claim the record!!

Crazy prices to fish!

catch a fish then run down stream after it?? I think not!

not much help really on watercraft or fly choice.

Is it just me or does the fish on 18 mins look a bit trampy with the bitten down tail?

never being a 2lb fish lol more like 1

£15 per day, what a con. £40 per year for miles upon miles of river, where I'm from.

Don't believe for a moment they fish aren't stocked, broken tails and discolouration patterned

I fish for trout with another technique, witouth barb, witouth messing up the river bottom because i don't wade. Also i handle the catch and release principle. Another surplus is that juvenile fishes don't usually take my bait because they simply aren't big enough to take it. Still i'm forbidden to fish on the alot of trout rivers because i'm not fly fishing... This is just nonsense. Because of this flyfishing-snob-mentality i'll always laugh my ass off the moments the big trout come chaising my bate by 2 or 3 at a time, while the all-snobby-flyfishermen round me catch nothing or just the juvenile troutThe ones you should actually leave at rest. I'd actually be interested to learn to fly fish and i had some curious tries in the past allready. The snobbery allways withheld me... Did you really think you fly-snobs are the only ones who respect or understand the fish and enviroment around us?

I liked the video but too much faffing about with landing the catch and too much non needed footage to get me to subscribe.

Lads. You need a proper producer./ Director. There is more to making a programe than pointing a camera. Poor in content
