I’ve been fishing all my life and caught a lot of trout during that time both Brown and Rainbow on lochs, rivers, lakes, still waters and reservoirs across the UK. But wherever there is water I’ll have a cast, there isn’t really a method I haven’t tried but I always go back to fly fishing.
I got the bug back seriously in 2020 and things had moved on after a break of 15 years from trout fishing as I became a course angler. Suddenly everyone has 20 plus fly lines and about 1000 flys and back then I had a 20 year old Daiwa whisker fly rod and a floating line but I could catch fish.
Fast forward I am now in a team, compete across the UK and want to share my experience with you. Follow me as I try to gain my first Scottish Cap.
I try to keep everything really simple so if your are a beginner and new to fly fishing it’s the perfect place to pick up some tips. All of the flys I tie I fish myself, you find them in my box and I will share how to tie them.
