thank for share master i use that kind of loop if i go fishing

Drop the music please

Hello, just subscribed. Great channel. I use a float tune for fly fishing and am looking for suitable spots on bigger water. I’ve heard about Clonbur but haven’t managed to get there yet. I know I’m limited distance wise with the float tube but I enjoy it on a local boggy lake. Nice wild trout but all small. A boat will be bought when I’m unable to manage the float tube but can’t justify the expense right now. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, maith thú👍

Thanks for keeping it simple, which fishing should be. We started out with just cane poles for bank fishing and crabbing with a piece of chicken necks.

I'm quite new to fly fishing, enjoyed the video but was quite surprised to see you holding the rod straight up when reeling him in. Whenever I've held it up like that it seems to make the trout far more prone to jumping and I've had a few spit the hook (bow to the king?). It's not easy finding a good fishing channel so I'm glad I've found yours. Especially liked that you included all the empty casts, makes it feel less like I'm watching a highlight reel and more like a true days fishing.

How fast is your strip?

Whats your lenght for each section of line.thxs

Interesting to watch I have been lucky enough to fish the May fly for about 40 years the last 10 or so with Fluoro I was just pondering why I don’t I go back to nylon is it my memory playing tricks or did it not tangle as much or break this year I seemed to be making up another tippet more than fishing would be interested in comments.

Nice video & a fantastic location. Well done on that lovely trout & unlucky with the one you lost - saved that for next time 👍

I wouldn't call a nomad a "wet fly". It's more of a lure. Whatever... Try giving a Dawsons Olive a go on an intermediate line, especially the green and orange variety with blue half-hackle. I've recommended it to dozens of anglers and find it deadly on still waters. p.s. I admire your handling of a trout before release. Quality. Good luck with your channel. I've subscribed.

Great video. Done that a number of times 10 or so years ago. Derg is a fantastic lake . The Spent is such a special cast . To see huge trout cruising and sipping, ignorant to an artificial gets the adrenaline going. 🇮🇪Tight lines

Is the perfection loop for high break strain only, my loops are snapping using fulling mill masterclass fluoro, wichwood ghostmode and airflo sightfree all in 8lb

Nice one

Where is this lake located?

Well done Steve, weather hasn't been kind to us here in Mayo for spent fishing in the evenings, nice footage

Nice video thank you for sharing

Enjoyable first video & pleased to see that your camera work stayed on target. Some nice fish caught too - well done. Looks like a picturesque spot to fish, where is it?

Steve, It was a pleasure shooting with you today, I hope to visit Ireland again and possibly fish with you. The trout were very active in the river just a couple hundred yards below the bridge. It would be a joy to fish it.

Subscribed to your channel and enjoyed video, Any fly you get from Malcolm will be a fish catcher, Good luck with your channel 👍

The “Pumpkin Head Nomad”

Maxima is amazing stuff, so resilient. I still use it but many now use fancy flourocarbons but they are prone to sudden breakages, especially if they rub against rocks etc

Are you using dry or wet flies?

Steve: Both videos (the dry fly leader and the wet fly cast) are well done and welcome. They offer a little simplicity in the increasingly complicated endeavor of fly fishing. I would offer one quibble on the surgeon's knot: cut the piece of leader that points toward your rod or reel and tie your fly on the strand that points down towards the point fly. Otherwise, it has been said that when a fish takes the dropper fly (especially if it is a good sized one) it will be pulling against the core of the knot and may cause it to loosen. Anyway, have a great season on the loughs.

Nice one. More river fishing please. Both wet flies?

Great video. What type rod are you using, lenght and weight?

Why don't you use a surgeons knot to join your lines? it's much easier to tie than a blood knot. I used to use the blood knot for years. But when i got a bit older and my eyesight got a bit dim i started using the surgeons knot. Never had it break yet.

Thanks so much 🎉 🌟🎣💫

Well done Steve that's a fantastic trout good man

Great stuff Steve 😊hope you're getting loads of fish 🐟 👍 keep up the good work

Usually tie second fly to a length of 5x attached to bend if the first fly. I'm afraid of tangling with this type of dropper rig.

Very AWESOME Mate Great Tying 😊

Nice

nice to see you still about :) ... I still have your 2 DVDs at home from years ago!

Well done, nice footage

Well done. Liked and subscribed

Well done, just subbed

Great job Steve👍 I blanked last week when I was out fishing great to see someone keeping it REEL 😂

Great video again mate👍

Very interesting video

A masterclass from a real professional

Unbelievable makes me want to go fishing fabulous video

Nice clear demonstration there. I often use 3 turn waterknots to join the different lines when making a tapered leader, I know I should use the blood knot and just bloody practice it more 😆 thanks for the video it might have inspired me!

Hi i think i seen you before ...did you make a video on may fly a few years ago

Good luck with your fishing channel, enjoyed watching

Great demo and you're so right about 'if it ain't broke...'. So much 'progress' is just about marketing unnecessary stuff. By the way, would you ever fish a dropper on your tapered leaders? I've messed about with various ways of doing it using the tags on my blood knot

Thank you for your comment. I appreciate that.

Thanks. That was clear and well described tutorial!

This guy is amazing! I know like nothing from fishing, but he's inspiring me to gave a go.
