The brown trout season closed on Sunday (28 April) here in Tasmania. I look forward to watching your fishing session during our off season (fly tying season). I haven't seen the Doon for nearly 20 years, such a bonnie wee river. Many thanks.
Thank you Davie so much for sharing your day with us. Beautiful scenery and success on the water is a bonus… I really appreciate that you always show the flies and gear. I am a big user of Fulling Mills boxes and tying materials but I didn’t realize they had tippet. I will need to order some and give it a go here in the USA. Also, look forward to tying a few of these flies up…always love the dynamite Harry’s. Thanks again.
Hi @Roman_Goss_Art, I'm using rods from a company called Cadence so I have attached a link to them for you to see..www.cadencefishing.co.uk/product-category/fly-fishing/single-handed-rods/ All the very best Davie
Hi Davie! When you said you dried your fly it got me thinking about my CDC hoppers. After a fish they dont seem to float anymore. any tips on how to keep them bouyant for a few fish rather than changing every time I get a fish? If anyone has any tips its appreciated
Thoroughly wash it, dry it as best as you can, hook it on a thick rubber band, pull your line stretching the rubber band, and then pluck the rubber band like a guitar string. The vibration will sling the rest of the water off.
CDC needs to be treated with waterproofing before you fish. When it is dyed all the natural oil is washed out. A application of floatant is needed, I use some good old Musilin
Ok, i can’t control myself any longer, please no more videos about you walking in the woods with rod and reel not even assembled. Please, I am a huge fan….. but really?
Big long walk Davie , keeping nice and fit .
Absolutely beautiful video. Love the way that trout took the dry❤❤
Hard going Davie but you still managed to winkle a few lovely brownies out. Really appreciate your efforts and a joy to watch. Cheers 👍
Really enjoyed the video, thanks Davie.

Fishing on a bluebird day like this can be a little tough; but it still beats a day at work! 😅
I fish the river ribble & hodder . Ive found it hard going at times this year . This cold easterly wind & the water as been up & down .
Yes do you know Mr George Clegg BAC and I fished ribble and hodder
Some good tips from you and great your showing the flies. All helps for us beginners. Cheers Davie.
Nice bit of River that Davie.... I've never Fished the Doon 👍🥃
Your videos about fly tying are amazing. Do I need to say more?
great video, cannot believe no one else on the bank? such a nice stretch of water
Great looking river!
Hells teeth Davie, that shelter is made from the remains of a WWII air raid shelter! Talk about the thrifty Scot’s 😂😂😂
Hello. Can you tell me what class of fishing rod are you using?

Keep an elastic band or the band off the tippet spool and just ping the fly off of it when it gets wet
Thoroughly wash it, dry it as best as you can, hook it on a thick rubber band, pull your line stretching the rubber band, and then pluck the rubber band like a guitar string. The vibration will sling the rest of the water off.
