Washing Line Vs Dry Fly Fishing For Trout 

I think I’ve just learned more from this video than anywhere else. Short rest and cast to another lane, the retrieval patterns and speeds for various flies, the areas you’re casting etc, etc. thank you!

Brilliant tutorial as always Rhys. Thank you for being so thorough

Thanks for your interesting videos, since I have been watching your videos I have been catching a lot more fish at Farmor in Oxfordshire. Would like to see you do a video on sea trout fishing, I have had some big sea trout in Wales fishing at night, it sure gets the heart pumping.

Glad to see you back Rhys some great fishing there loved this one.All the very best pal 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Brilliant. You make it look so easy. One day perhaps! Thanks for all the videos.

Great info as always, I’ve been catching lately using some of your methods 🎣👍🏼

I’ve just got back from a days fishing myself a Rhys vid is the Best way to end a Sunday. Washing line was lethal for me today. Black Fritz fab on the point and then combo of buzzers, diawl Bachs and Cormies at 4ft apart. 21 to the bank and lost a few good ones. I hadn’t even tried the washing line till I started watching your vids last year

Really enjoyed that. It just shows! "Bright and Sunny" and still they will come up to the surface. Thanks again.

Another cracking video Rhys. I have never fished this water, but that will change this year. We have got a good few waters up north we are looking at doing. The boys, Paul and Justin was up there last week in the comp and managed third place. Looking forward to the next video mate. Take care Rhys. Shaun.

Am at Clywedog next week. Will be in the washing line most likely,,,,, I really enjoy your videos, and have learnt a lot from them. Thank you !

Hi Rhys, As always a great video and I've learned a great deal again! I've been trying to fish the washing-line lately but I'm having no success. The water is a medium sized resie, about 15ac, with bank access only. I've been using about a 12-15ft leader with two epoxy buzzers and a DB then a booby on the point. I've been fishing them fairly static, but having no success! I notice you aren't using buzzers here, and are figure eighting the flies back, am I fishing things too slow? Should I drop the buzzers and change to something like the cormorant? I know it's been a pretty hot month so that might explain things, but I'd like some advice! Thanks, Johnny

Excellent video Rhys 👌

Tip Top video again Rhys. Regards from Northumberland.

Hi Rhys, love the videos! Me and my dad are having our first trip to clywedog on Monday. the weather is supposed to be overcast with a gentle breeze and showers. with 4 rods between us, what would be your go to setups and areas on the lake to fish? cheers!

Great video as always. Keep up the good work 👏

Creat vid Rhys. really enjoyed it 👍🏼👍🏼

Super video Rhys, always good to see fish being expertly tricked.

Hi Rhys. Great video, wouldn't have expected the dry to come out on top. CDC seems to be a trout magnet on its day

Cracking video,fabulous place to fish,need to try from a boat 1 day.

Brilliant! Makes me want to get back there soon.

Rhys I hope you are enjoying life congratulations on both your marriage and becoming a dad. I hope that you still have some time to enjoy more fishing in the future. With as time and life allows returning to your channel possibly more collaborations with others such as Lindsay Simpson. Be it locally or further afield

cracking tutorial video as always pal 👍

Interesting retrieve technique @ 2:23

Great video again Rhys, your water fishes exactly like my local up in the hills, sun comes out the fish are all over the dry fly and looking up we get some serious surface action up there. Tight Lines

Great video again. The Airflo line is it the 12,ft slow tip your using.

Rhys great video. but can you tell us what month off the year each fishing trip venue please. because some flies are better than others in Summer, and so on. cheers

Bleep machine getting a bit of use there Rhys lol 😂

I enjoy the videos and find them very instructive - I notice the slow tip you used was blue in colour but the airflo superflo slow tip seem to be different colours to blue - was that a different line please and also did you use 6 or 12 foot tip

what make is the floating line?

Hi , Could you please tell me were you were fishing,it looks so beautiful, I would love to go there sometime.great video's please keep it up.cant wait for the next one.

Great video again Rhys. There's nothing better than catching trout on the dry. Was that video done last year Rhys as I noticed that the old cabin was in the background.? Hope to get up there again next week at some point. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Could fish drys for days the takes are the best 🎉😊😊😊

Rhys, is there any particular reason you fished a 7wt on the nymph in rod, rather than a 6wt to match the dries rod? I’m looking to switch to the vision stillmaniac but want to cover the dries and nymphs with just the one rod.

Hi Rhys, would you do the same 7 second recast tactic on small stillwaters as well? Been trying to figure out how I should approach them with dries as the weather is getting warmer.

Hi Rhys, great videos, just discovered your channel and love it ! Well done late ! What were those flies on the dry fly line please ? And any suggestions where to get some ?? Thanks Simon

Hi rhys just wondering I'm going to be travelling from Ireland over to the Rhondda valleys in the next few weeks was thinking about taking the rods do you know of any good lakes near pontypridd

Great video. I’m a beginner and find that if I use two or more flies on droppers I get a lot of tangles. Any tips to avoid these?

How do you set up at leader? Do you use snappers (hooks), a tippet leader or just a straight line?

Do you recommend using fly clips im a beginner thanks

How do you manage to keep your eyes on the 3 dry flies on at same time? I sometimes struggle just to keep eyes on 1 dry fly!

If you don't have an amadou patch, regular kitchen roll helps dry CDC feathers in an instant. Plenty may be needed with wet hands though!

Looked like a lovely day for it, much nicer than the wind we had for the comp last weekend 😆

Hi Rhys. Did you shoot that video recently?

My favourite fly is THE BLOB

This is really a channel that produces quality content. Keep it going 👍

Notice you use gink on the CDC, I thought it didn't work or ruined the material?

I love all of your videos and information but most of it is about multiple fly methods. On my local water I can only fish with a single fly and no boobies. What methods should I b.e using at this time of year?

What’s the floating line👀👀

Going to do my first comp up in Trawsfynydd have you got any tips
