That’s a great vlog as always thanks Andy. Great to see!

@IBandAndyFishing 8 месяцев назад

Thanks Phil, will try to keep them coming!

@timothysmart8528 Год назад

That’s a very thoughtful 3 days Andy. Long distance dry fly is very difficult. But very worthwhile. The fish looked lovely. The blue sheen was very obvious

@IBandAndyFishing Год назад

I think I came away with more questions than answers this time, a bit of a head scratcher!

@Nicktgrief Год назад

IB ... give this lad some lessons. He needs the Trout Queens touch 🤣. SOme days you just know its not your day and you're best off going to either the pub or the chippy ... or both 😎

@MrSofthackle Год назад

Really enjoyed your video. I’ve had days like that where I have lost a bunch of fish. It gets a bit frustrating but t is reassuring to see someone else have these days too. The music you ran ran into reminds me of a story. Last fall I was fishing the Iowa Driftless and someone was blaring music from a nearby cabin. Normally I would have considered the evening ruined but I found myself enjoying the music and catching a few brown and rainbow trout made it a nice evening.

You are a dab hand on the Dry Andy, productive trip that really, still quite early. Fishings been great down here.

the downstream dry fly execution was bang on 🔥 really good to learn from & try to replicate! class Andy 👏

@davidrobinson1607 Год назад

Hi Andy, great video, once again. I'm pleased you enjoyed one of our club beats. I fished it today, and our beat below the road bridge. Very different conditions, really cold and wet. Never saw a grannom but it warmed slightly at 2pm and triggered a very short hatch of LDOs. Managed to pick one off on the dry and a few throughout the day on a March brown nymph. Very difficult. Like you I was wading deep today. So deep my wallet got wet, in the top pocket of my wading vest! (The pool with the 3 Fosters cans by the style!). Keep up the good work Andy, I really enjoy your style and I am learning a lot from you.

@wvlongshooter3912 Год назад

Awesome content!! Here in USA, West Virginia, I’m catching browns on a grasshopper terrestrial fly that I tie. They are eating this pattern with ferocity!!! Yesterday while sight fishing in a spring creek, my most effective pattern and style was the grasshopper dry fly. Love your videos, thanks a bunch for another real and honest fishing video!!!

@IBandAndyFishing Год назад

I really wish we got big terrestrials like you guys, we don't really get them. I did a season in NZ and loved the cicada stuff. Could be time to book a flight over the pond!

@wvlongshooter3912 Год назад

@@IBandAndyFishing yes, y’all come on over, you’d be very welcomed. You guys would probably be amazed at how many creeks or streams I fish that are loaded with wild rainbows and browns. Thanks!!!

@tomhammerton7697 Год назад

Thanks for the Usk videos Andy, I've watched and enjoyed all three. Maybe you do catch more fish euro nymphing - but nothing is more fun than taking a fish on the dry fly! When's the next IB vs Andy challenge?

Great wee set of videos again sir some nice fish in there aswell you did well but you need your good lady with you to make you up your game could have imagined her on the bank rolling about laughing at you missing and losing so many 😂

If IB had seen me miss all those she'd have driven the car home and left me behind, no doubt about it!

@BlackCountryPiker Год назад

Cracking mini series there Andy, I know you have probably cut bits out but you make it look so easy. It looked to be very different conditions on this day. Do you prefer a brighter day or overcast? Lovely fish caught matey, some of the colours were awesome 👍

@@IBandAndyFishing fishings going really well actually thanks... We've got the fish turned on and ready to rock and roll 😂 😂 😂... March brown spinners and grannoms are hatching the now.. But the other day I caught a couple of lovely wild broons on an orange daddy.. Can you believe it 😂

@chrisholmes8197 Год назад

Enjoyed watching this mate. Proper lively session with a few mishaps is miles better than a quiet day. How do you tell a stocked fish apart from a wild fish? On the swale I always assume the wild fish are the ones that are longer and skinnier and fight much harder, but can’t look at one and say oh I think that’s stocked and that’s wild.

@philipnicholas9371 Год назад

That was great thanks Andy, though sorry you didn’t have it a bit easier. Great bit of comedy when you missed three in a row then one jumped out of the net. Proper lively little rascal! Hopefully it won’t be long before I see you up in Derbyshire.

Hi Andy, excellent video as normal, I do a bit of very basic youtube fly fishing stuff, could I ask is your second camera mounted on a standard bank stick or have you adapted it in some way? Many thanks.

@IBandAndyFishing Год назад

Hi Chris, thank you very much! It's mounted on a Dinsmore spiral point bank stick yes. I got fed up with a tripod, the bank stick is good in most situations 👍

@davidrobinson1607 Год назад

Hi Chris. Don't put yourself down, young man. I am one of your subscribers and I really like your videos. I fish the Little Avon at Berkeley, and it is very similar to the streams you fish - steep banks, deep holes, very overgrown, constant wading and clambering about. I especially like how you cast your 6' 2#, right handed, over your left shoulder. Very impressive.👏

@ericlong9085 Год назад

What's the recipe for the spent caddis if you don't mind sharing, enjoyed the vids cheers

@IBandAndyFishing Год назад

It's not one I've tied bud but the following would work: Hook: 12/14/16 pupa curved Thread: any 12/0 to match dubbing Rib: 6/0 brown thread Dubbing: light cahill rabbit Thorax cover: yellow foam Wings: cdc tips

@derekhawkins7290 Год назад

That first fish looked very much like a seatrout?

@pauldavies9666 Год назад

Was really interested in what you said about one of the fish looking like a stockie - can you elaborate? I catch these fish with the blue sheen on the Usk and rivers in the Marches, and always took them to be fully wild. Thanks.

@moldfinger Год назад

its odd but I've been dealing with the same scenarios this year, less march brown and LDO replaced by vast armada's of grannom (I'm up on the Eden for what its worth) its either the weather or some sort of insect voodoo we don't understand. Anyway, this has been a great mini series, thanks Andy

@IBandAndyFishing Год назад

Very interesting! I've done a lot of early season on the Usk and never seen this before. I do wonder if the LDO hatched in Feb when we had the dry spell, they certainly hatched here in Derbyshire

@moldfinger Год назад

@@IBandAndyFishinghmmm you're probably right, the LDO jungle telegraph lit up across the country in Feb and now its gone quiet. who knows what will happen this weekend? the mystery keeps us interested :)

@trutta54 Год назад

Great video thank you. Really appreciate the honesty, if you can get it wrong sometimes it makes us strugglers feel a bit better about ourselves! You showed us the spent caddis you were fishing, it'd be interesting to know is that what they were taking, or were they on hatching grannom? Did you apply floatant to the body?

@IBandAndyFishing Год назад

Hi Paul, I was only dressing the wings, the body will be dropping slightly below the surface. I think they could take it as either a spent or an emerger, which in my experience are the two stages most likely to rise a grannom feeder 👍

@trutta54 Год назад

@@IBandAndyFishing Yes, I suppose they could take it as either, good point that, thanks Andy.
