Fishing this high altitude lake on the side of a mountain blew my mind! We catch some beautiful fish and see some incredible views, fishing doesn't get much better than this! It definitely wasn't easy getting up there, with my fitness anyway! I hope you enjoy the video especially considering how much effort it took me to get up there. I absolutely love trout fishing, and in this video we do some lure fishing for trout and fly fishing for trout. Wild brown trout fishing at it's finest!
As always, thank you very much for watching, I really appreciate it! If you enjoyed the video please don't forget to give it a like, and subscribe if you want to see more of the fishing videos I make! Hopefully I'll see you here for the next video!
You can also get 10% off the travel rod (X5 Combination) I used here by using discount code AFUK10 on the Rigged and Ready website: riggedandready...
I'd highly recommend it, it's a perfect all rounder!

There are records of one Victorian landowner who stocked high altitude lochs and lochans on his estate in Scotland by having pony panniers (baskets which sit either side of the pony’s withers) lined with linen bags, which themselves were coated with pitch, then filled with stream water, and then the fingerling trout which had been bred in captivity were put into these ‘portable goldfish bags’ and transported to their end destinations by the pony and ghillie. Great endeavour!

Nice vid. Fly fishing suggestions if i may. 1. Fish the fly first to avoid spooking too many fish 2. If you get a follow don't be afraid to pause for a good few seconds then start retrieve again. They often come back 3. Vary the retrieve speed including very small sharp snatches 4. If you're getting lots of follows but no takes rotate through flies quickly 5. Always try dry fly first to a rising fish. No need to retrieve if the cast is good 6. You need to be stealthier around bank than lure fishing. Dark clothes. 7. Polarised glasses 8. Flies with frills and legs always good when you can't tell what they're feeding on 9. Leader least as long as rod

@adventurefishinguk 11 месяцев назад

Some great advice there, thanks a lot I’ll definitely bare it in mind! I’ve got a lot of learning to do 👍

@guyosborn615 11 месяцев назад

Good advice - I quite often use daddy long legs or caddis - easy to see, nice big mouthful (that is not matching the hatch but is a temptation for the fish to grab a big mouthful) and on rivers if you can't mend your line well, both chub and trout are used to things like caddis skittering on the surface and, because of the size, fish don't just sip but do a decisive take.

@petermarsh4993 10 месяцев назад

Fantastic rod setup. Would make it easier to hike or kayak with this set up. Yes, the lake is a glacial tarn, the remnant basin left behind when a glacier has retreated up the valley. The steep wall at the back of the tarn is called a bergschrund or backwall. It’s where the ice cuts almost vertically along with great height of the ice and snow. It’s not a moraine as someone else suggested which is somewhere down the valley - a heap of boulders that were carried down the valley and dumped there when the glacier melted. Fascinating stuff glaciers.

Interestingly, the lake is thought to be dead which keeps everyone away but there is serious tonnage of trout in there. Big eels, too. Only locals tend to know about this...

Reminds me when a couple of friends and i hiked a little over 8 miles to fish Horton lake in the Sierra Nevada U.S. The elevation was around 11,000 ' and the trout had small bodies but big normal sized heads, due to main diet being mosquito's . I was an inexperienced hiker, and i packed way too much weight going up, but the suffering was all worth it.

When fly fishing, you need a longer leader and then tippet. And when you cast, never take your arm past 90 degrees above your head and wait for the weight of the line to begin to bend the rod before moving forward. If you do that, and it takes practice, you will catch those beautiful Brookies

Hey...nice video and intro to that bit of kit. As a mountain fly fisher I can certainly appreciate it. You cast better than a beginner, so definitely put a longer leader on! Or they'll get spooked. Also, try doing all your false casts to the side rather than to the same spot you're looking to cast. Or each false cast can also spook the trout 👍

Great video. I love any picturesque videos, especially fishing ones!! You mentioned your back taking the strain in the video. I'm a sports physio and have some little bits that would make it easier. 1) Get your rucksack higher up on your back, not hanging down low. Also, the heaviest items should be at the top with the rucksack filled equally from left to right. 2) Like a lot of injuries, things go 'eek/ bang/ crack" through overuse. So some basic exercises for your quads and core will help no end. Getting fit for fishing hahaha. Who'd have thought it, but joking aside it;ll allow you to keep making more vids. ATB, Chris. :)

Thanks for the stunning scenery - you reminded me how much that part of the world is an absolute wonder. The geomorphologic feature that 'hosts' the tarn is called a cirque - created by the last glacial phase to affect planet Earth. There's a nice one on the side of Snowdon.

@adventurefishinguk 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! Yeah i remember my gcse geography too, this kind of glacial lake is called a 'Corrie' if i'm not mistaken!

I did something similar in Colorado years ago w a friend, found a series of beaver ponds 5 miles from the nearest road and caught native trout on every cast it seemed. Kept 2 for dinner, threw the rest back, camped out and hiked out the next morning, wish I could wash rinse repeat that day.

I noticed you complained of back strain, you could virtually eliminate this by correctly distributing the weight in your pack. However, the biggest thing would to be to utilize a hip belt if you backpack has one, because if used correctly they make an absolute work of difference, and that is however backpackers do it.

A tip to reduce bird nests: after reeling in allow the lure to unwind by itself before casting again

@adventurefishinguk 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the advice! I hadn’t really considered that a spoon would be twisting my line 👍

@daviecoats2080 11 месяцев назад

Try a small swivel about 18inches / 50cm above the lure that should alleviate the problem.

Great to see someone do this, nicely filmed. I always look at those kinds of lakes and think I'd love to fish them as they look so pretty, even if they hold underwhelmingly small browns mainly. Nifty little rod and reels set up. Personally I'm a dedicated trout spin guy, dislike fly immensely. One of my Tenryu, Samurai or Gloomis rods and one or two of several Daiwas 1000's or recent Shimano Stella is what I'd bring. I'd generally have range of lures from Rapala minnows, Celtas, Tassie Devils to cover streams to lakes. Would be hard cutting down on gear to do a hike like that, always feel like I didn't bring enough of a selection.

@adventurefishinguk 10 месяцев назад

I find small spoons always work a treat for small trout! Thanks for watching and I appreciate you taking the time to comment 👍

@chairmannow2297 10 месяцев назад

@@adventurefishinguk Good point. I've got quite a few spoons in part of my trout lure collection, spanning 5 plano cases. I'm normally fishing a river on my farm so they don't really come into play vs other lures. Haven't done much with them in the stocked dams and larger lakes here in Australia either really as Tassie Devils seem to dominate with larger trout.

@JulianGonzalez1974 9 месяцев назад

This is a lake my friends family owns here in Colorado. Youre not allowed to fish at the boat house buy you can across the lake. The fish at the boat house are hand fed so I wouldnt be fair to catch them. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jgbcCbOH1mw.htmlsi=f9ymszo_ppND4yJN

@Chanselleur 11 месяцев назад

Look at the little red spots on them they are beautiful! I wish people could understand that when they put chemicals in there lit “lawn” it kills these lil trout and they never come back again. It’s genocide, extermination. Did you have to go so far out to catch anything that would normally be in a stream anywhere nearby is tragic to say the least also, that people can barely finance a cookie cutter home that is essentially a large cardboard box.

@adventurefishinguk 11 месяцев назад

There are plenty of streams with fish in around me, i just love fishing in the mountains! Pollution is definitely a problem though, such a shame

@willnuke64 11 месяцев назад

Great video mate and a lovely spot, one of my favourite in the lakes. Not sure if you know already but I'm fairly certain that that tarn is the only tarn with artic char living within it, they're left over from the last glacial maximum. Would've been great to see you catch one of them

@adventurefishinguk 11 месяцев назад

@benjaminmelikant3460 11 месяцев назад

For your fly setup, if they were hitting those small spoons then a small streamer of some kind should have worked well. I couldn't really see what you were using, so that may have already been what you had. But something like a small woolly bugger in black or rusty brown, size 10 or 12 would have been an excellent bet in that pond. I saw you mentioned dry flies but that you had no way to keep them from sinking. Spit "kind of" works in a pinch, then just keep drying the fly out on your sleeve every time it gets saturated. Pinch it in the fabric until most of the moisture wicks away. Keep at it though, fly fishing is a very rewarding experience!

@adventurefishinguk 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the advice! I found myself drying it on my sleeve every cast, i'll try the spit approach next time I find myself without floatant! Thanks for watching too, much appreciated!

That looks similar to the small lakes of Ben Nevis. Many similar lakes like this in Scotland, but the Falcons and Eagles get a lot of food from there.
