Small tip. Start to use single hooks on wobblers and spinners when fishing for trout. In Switzerland, this is a rule in many rivers. It protects the fish. No need to fish treble hooks if you intend to release all the fish. Cheers :)
I agree, I love Fishing and I love the Fish. And I love that our ansestors knew the ansestors of these brown trout, and eating them kept them alive. I love to harvest some of these beauties sometimes and savour them. But with this many of us in the world its alot for the river to take, so single barbless ✊ if you get them you get them. If you don't you don't. Its our turn to help keep them alive. 💚 from ireland. Love the channel!
I was allways going for the big pikes with a heavy set up and when i saw this vid i go to fish ultra light and what a joy i had Chris, now I’m going more fishing on u.l and i love it!!
Nice filming Chris. Love wild trout fishing myself. Got off the mark on a small west yorkshire beck a couple of weeks back. 10 inch brownie on worm and float. Good stuff.
What an inspiration you have been lately Chris, I'm going to be targeting a few trout while on holiday up in Cumbria come July , keep them great videos coming and many thanks.
Brilliant fish them sone quality size’s, I like the line combo , it’s about time they started doing that , be good to start seeing that being introduced in general course fishing too main line hook length,that type or thing just helps getting the correct set up , need a bit of work in the Scottish accent, but again brilliant fishing excellent show ❤️
Another great video! Thank you. There's a burn near me that looks similar and I don't think its been fished. This has definitely made me want to give it a go.
Those were some lovely brownies pal 👏🏻 😁 I’ve not been out this season just waiting for the wind to calm down a bit I also fish ultralight for wild browns were those size 1 or 2 spinners or even 0 thanks in advance ✌🏻💙👍🏻 from Scotland 💙🎣
Beautiful fish. So lucky, we don't really have them here in the Netherlands, somewhat in the east and south-east. Little creeks. But thats a 3 hour drive lol
Some great fish there. Just getting back into fishing again, funnily enough it's due to one if your videos showing up in feed recently. After watching some of your videos I just had to get my license and dust off my light lure rod Had a couple of 1 hour sessions before work and banked on both, bit rusty I think. He'd a bit more time on Sunday and had my first fish, nice little perch on a small jig. Back out on the hunt tomorrow morning Think I have the bug again. Thanks.
Good luck matey! If you can drag yourself out of bed early enough then the crack of dawn is a great time to lure fish this time of year. Especially for perch
A few thumping trout there it always amazes me the size of trout a small steam can throw up, another great video despite the worse Scottish accent I've ever heard.
Cant wait to get some trout fishing done once the rivers open up near me on the 16th. First ever time trout fishing, going to be an experience *EDIT* If any fine fellows would like to give some advice on anything trout fishing related please do, rods, reels, rigs, lures etc. All will be valuable
You can fish for trout and salmon during river close season man, otherwise it would be pointless trout season starting in March at the same time river close season kicks in, you can only fish with certain bait depending on your area however, check the gov website for your local bylaws.
@@jakepavlo91 Thanks I didn't know that. The water near me is SSSI so assumed that meant any and all fishing isn't allowed from 15th March to 15th June. Will do some more research though, thank you.
Hi great vid as normal I’m new to this ul fishing it’s great fun followed a lot of your tips n methods I was wondering how you can still fish rivers in “closed season “ are trout rules different thankyou
Yeah it’s the trout season now… many years ago we used to fish for trout at this time of year with worms… sometimes we hooked into fish other than trout… 😎
Dude, awesome video! I am thinking of buying this rod for micro jigging for trout. My only worry is that it is too soft for faster currents and I may need faster action for better sensitivity. What is your advice?
@@The_ginger_fisherman I am using a 1-5 fast action rod for them, but the unhook ratio is just too big because of the stiff action. Thanks a lot and tight lines!
cam you really catch bigger fish with that kind of rod? I only fish one stretch of river so would be way more fun with perch and roach but nice to know it could handle a pike or carp
@@The_ginger_fisherman cheers mate, also are you still allowed to fish up there then? Not allowed to fish rivers from march to june in the south at least.
All depends on the local bylaws in your area. Most council areas stand by the close season for course fishing 🎣 but also the trout season is open during that closed season. Never heard of fly only on the river system.
@@makeorwellfictionagain3553 are you for real ! How can you only catch trout in a river full of other species ! Perch , chub. Roach , pike , bream all take lures. He should not be fishing the river full stop.
@@jaycfc6955 it’s legal to do so for trout in most areas. So regardless of your feelings on the matter he’s doing nothing wrong. So yeah 100% for real.
Question, serious one. River Tees. If I went with lure/spinner would I be breaking the law during closed season. I don't know where brown trout are, have valid license?
Providing you are targeting trout using lures like spinners, flies, etc. Then no you shouldn't be breaking the law. Trout live in almost all rivers and you can never guarantee not to catch something you shouldn't, but at the same time you can't control if something other than trout takes the lure
@@nicholasbruzza So natural bait like worms or lures/flies are permitted? Such a muddy grey area during close season. I know some are completely against fishing at all during close season but fish spawn year round, seen roach spawning in August . Fish breed when they breed. Have kept both tropical and cold water aquariums.
This will likely answer any questions you have www.gov.uk/freshwater-rod-fishing-rules/when-and-where-you-can-fish#:~:text='Close%20seasons'%20are%20seasons%20when,15%20March%20to%2015%20June. The law is quite clear that you are allowed to fish for anything that isn't in close season.
