I hit 14 fish on the nymph yesterday on our lovely Welsh trout river, I went back down this evening and it was like casting a PTN into grandma's gravy Davie. These are funny times we live in, in relation to the weather, but we've also noticed a lot of very healthy juvenile fish on our river this season so maybe it's working better for the fish than the angler which is a win win for the trout. Thanks for sharing your trip to the river just as it is when you fish without all the edited highlights. A real historical record of the days fishing :)
love the videos just got done tying up some dynamite harrys and let me tell u they are a treat down the river this time of the year keep up the good work ❤!!!!
Very enjoyable to share your day Davie, thanks. Some lovely bird song doon the Doon - a beautiful blackbird. I feel sorry for the poor nesting birds this odd weather. We've just had a very weird, sparse mayfly season on the River Kennet in Berks. Pollution doesnt help, but the water's been over the banks all year - not normal chalk stream conditions. Hey ho. Roger
Hi Mark, I'm glad you enjoyed the video, I have attached a link to all the flies that caught fro me as well as the wet fly for you to see.. All the very best Davie Links to the flies I caught on..

Hi James, It's a small syndicate water and I can fish it on a Friday and a Sunday so it's an in-between a club water and a private one..Most of the members only fish for salmon.. All the very best Davie..
@DavieMcPhail Thanks, Davie . I was just curious. Don't know what the Doon. Or any other of the Ayrshire rivers, are like now for migratory fish. They'll probably have declined. Like all the rivers , particularly up the west coast.Back in the late 40s 50s and 60s, when I fished them. Before moving to Argyllshire they were an angler's dream. I count myself very lucky to have experienced that era. I still fish , not as much as I used to. Mainly stillwater. While it's still great , it's not the same. I've always preferred rivers . Kind regards and thanks for the great vids Jim.
Hi Toby, As mentioned in the comments, with a Scottish accent it would sound like we were saying doon rather than saying down, it just happens to be the same spelling of my local water the River Doon so I was playing with the title..So if you ever come to Scotland I would be very happy to take you doon the water for a days fishing.. All the very best Davie
Quality Davie Just great getting out to the river running water soothes your soul thanks from Ireland
Great video and refreshing to see swinging wets. Sometimes the old ways still work the best.
And what a beautiful wee river the Doon is.
Thanks again for taking me along, your a kind man.

Hey Davy what does Doon The River mean? We Americans have a hard time with some of your words😅😅😅
He’s fishing the River Doon, “Doon the river” is just a play on words using the name of where he’s fishing!
Doon is a play on the Scots word for "down" and the river Doon in Ayrshire. I trust this helps.
