Hi Iain, Lovely video, nice to see Upper Farleyer again have had some nice fish of the beat. I'm on Lower in early May so the water should have warmed up a bit by then. Tight lines for the season
It was the first time For myself and I will look forward to having an other day there I hope that you have a day of silver in May Tight lines. Keep going with the videos Cheers Iain. 🥃
Thanks Paul It has taken a few days to get it off the ground and get confused with the buttons. I had Jas standing in the water casting. hopping to get some good shots for editing and I turned off the record button (silly twit). Maybe next time I definitely need more practise Cheers Iain 🥃
I am fortunate to get access to fish in some great places Drew and when the sun shines in February it doesn't really matter if is cold .. I hope to get out again tomorrow Cheers Iain. 🥃
Fair play to you for sticking at it-I wish you hadn't mentioned freezing feet ! I'm off up to the Teith on Monday, if I'm spared; still, apparently freezing showers are the new cure-all !
Tight lines Tom. I will be splashing about in the Tweed wrap up warm ! I have modified a pair of gloves to keep my hands warm don't know if I have anything extra to help with my feet ... Have fun and tight lines. Cheers Iain. 🥃
what a great day to be on the river James it was a bit cold ...... I have a few days out at the start of next week and meeting with Eric. the weather is to be cool but the Tweed is dropping so may have chance Cheers Iain 🥃
Looks a lovely beat Iain albeit it bitterly cold.. When I thought your videos couldn't be bettered you gone and done it. Thought the drone footage was brilliant and its certainly gives a new perspective of the river.
Hi Again Stephen This was the first time playing with the drone and I thought I had some great recordings of Jas casting but must have pressed a button that stopped recording and only had a few clips . I may try again its a handful to manage when you are old . I think that a youngster would have it going round in circles when I can only go in strait lines Cheers Iain. 🥃
Hi Iain. I used to fish Farlayer and Taymouth Castle waters when I was nobburt a lad. Its amazing in those days the top of the beat where the Lyon runs into the Tay was completely treeless. And that pool upstream on the Tay "The Point" was to die for. I see you've acquired an overhead cam - great Iain. Tight lines.
Thanks Philip First time fishing at Upper Farleyer and I had a good day for it. The river changes over the years and vegetation can grow at a rate that creeps up when we aren't watching I haven't had the toy for long and I have found it a bit strange to use and editing was another challenge I hope you get the chance to get back there Cheers Iain. 🥃
well spotted Allan. It is going to take a while for an old mad to master and may have a couple of misshapes before it comes together. I thought I had recorded some great acting with Jas but old age got in the road of things onwards and upwards Cheers Iain. 🥃
A new `toy` to play with Iain? It really does enhance the overall effect of the visuals and seeing the river in all its glory. You`ll be starting a subscription service soon! Tight lines in 24 :)
Hi Again Roy I do get a lot from editing my trips and it has given me a lot of pleasure and helped me through some difficult times . I have appreciated the comments from so many anglers and I know it's tung in cheek from yourself .......... I will send my bank details .......... 😉. All the best and Tight Lines. Cheers Iain. 🥃
Hi Iain , lovely bit of water you had that day but no luck, I thought it was a little bright when you first started and it got better and a little more cloud cover during the day but still didn’t see anything showing. Great camera work over the river and what a cracking bit of water too. Our season starts on the 3rd March but we are having loads of rain and flash flooding at the moment hopefully it would have eased down by then. Will let you know how I get on. 🥃Steve.
Hi Steve it was a good day for a sun tan and there was a chance of a fish . got try harder and will be out again next week to chase after that bit of silver. I hope that your season is a good one . please let me know how the catches are and keep your rod bent. Cheers Iain. 🥃
I am going fishing for a few day next week with Eric on the river Tweed so hope to get a bit more practise with the new toy Daniel ....... I may have to get a polarised lens so that I can spot the fish 🫣. Cheers Iain. 🥃. Tight Lines April time 🎣
I am afraid of heights Jon when I look at my new toy up above it makes my toes curl The river was a bit high and I am sure I will get back for another cast there in the future Cheers Iain. 🥃
The Upper Farleyer beat is about 20 miles above where Georgina caught her 64lb Fish there are summary great places to fish and hope to try a few more this season. There were 9 copies of Miss Ballantines fish and I owned one for a while and have photo of myself and my son Drew holding the case with the fish and think I tagged it onto a previous video .... I will be joining a mate Bill and fishing the pool where she caught the monster next month and looking forward to having a cast there Cheers Iain. 🥃
I have only had my new toy for a couple of weeks and found it a bit difficult to manoeuvre The Guinness would definitely help Cheers Iain.🥃 Its been a while since I was in Dublin having a real pint of the black stuff but remember the outstanding flavour tight Lines 🎣👍
Jaz had a hold of one the day before James . He let the side down with a fast release There aren't a lot of fish about but we have to keep trying. I often sing to myself (just a perfect day By Lou Reid ). usually on the way home in the car so that no one can moan about the noise Cheers Iain 🥃

What a glorious time and place to go fishing.

Well done Ian unfortunately no fish but great to be out. River looked very promising. Tight lines for the season.
Thanks Paddy I haven't fished that beat before and given the chance I will get back for a few casts it's a lovely bet of water.
Cheers Iain 🥃
Lovely day out Iain... the river looked great and no shortage of water! 😉👍 Cheers James 🥃

You’ve got a new toy!

Great video. Better luck next time.👍👊
Thanks Tommy I'm out tomorrow and there are a few spring fish in the river. Cheers Iain. 🥃
Hi Iain , another great video, love the drone, thinking if a fish finder could fit on one ,how handy that would be lol , hope to get out in April D🥃
I am going fishing for a few day next week with Eric on the river Tweed so hope to get a bit more practise with the new toy Daniel ....... I may have to get a polarised lens so that I can spot the fish 🫣. Cheers Iain. 🥃. Tight Lines April time 🎣
May have been worth laying out a few casts closer to you. Distance doesn’t seem to be problem for you.😊
I do try cover the margins Paulo .. I try letting the fly come close to the bank as I know that is where a lot of fish travel upstream.
Cheers Iain. 🥃
Lovely bit of river Ian pity no springer m8
There had been two caught and one lost in the last week right place at the wrong time John Cheers Iain 🥃
I see you're taken to levitating up over the river Iain. Well done there. A wee bit high by the look of things (the river, not you.)
I am afraid of heights Jon when I look at my new toy up above it makes my toes curl The river was a bit high and I am sure I will get back for another cast there in the future
Cheers Iain. 🥃
Any fish on the near future 😮
out tomorrow on the Tweed 🎣. early Start Cheers Iain. 🥃
Great vid lain, looks a really nice beat. Is that where miss Ballantine cought her fish? Or am I thinking of somewhere else

Do you have a drone? Awesome footage! I raise a Guinness to your health and season!

Proper spring fishing there Ian raw day plenty of water no fish .....Still perfect tho eh ?
