  • Join Andy as he demonstrates how he uses the upstream worming technique to target wild trout.
    Upstream worming can be hugely successful just after a flood or in very low water conditions.

    Been using this method for over 40 years! Brilliant on seatrout and salmon and a killer on Dover sole and bass!

    Cant beat a bit of worming for your fish.

    Bloody hell !! I fished the fife Eden back in 1996 I was working at Raf Lucas and our digs were in Cooper 🎣
    No sea trout but some nice Browns on wet fly (snipe and purple , bibio ) looking forward to follow your channel !!😉👍🎣🎣

    This is a good method, I used it frequently to great effect years ago on the river tees, especially when there was a spate and the water was muddy. I normally never bothered with the lead shot, a decent lobworm gave enough casting weight. Its good for big perch too....
    You could maybe try a minnow bait-hook through the tail wrist, round the body once, hook under the dorsal fin, around the body again, into the gill, then out the mouth with the barb alongside the minnows jaw. That was a killer Tees bait.....

    Best in low water conditions ........... fished the River Wear during the summer, 2lb line using a 12½ ft float rod, slowly working upstream dropping the worm into the eddies behind big stones, often only 12-18 inches deep, places you would just not think would hold fish, stretches of shallow water. No shot just the worm, usually 1 in 10 held a fish, but you got to sense which were more likely than others.

  • @derekirelandsirsmokepotalo1152

    It's a good method I had 3 small brown trout today but I was able to hold them without dropping them back in 😂

    This is how I started fishing for trout and I don't understand why people don't do it more often, its always flys or lures. But using this method its not rare to have over 8 fish

      Cause most lads find it more sporting fishing flys, you can return most of the fish you catch on fly and spinners! We're as with coloured water you'd slaughter seatrout and salmon with the worm most of the fish take the worm down there hole and a lot of the trout don't go back they do be bleeding.

    Title Says River trout using Upstream Worming Technique yet all three fish were caught downstream based on that I seen, This method he is using is very popular in Ireland for Trout/Sea trout sometimes Salmon .
    Excellent sport of a barbless worm hook and a 1-7gram ultralight 5 foot rod with a shimano 500 or similar

    Out of the 3 fish that you caught it looked like 2 of them were from down stream. The other fish was harder to tell but I'd bet it wasn't from upstream either.

  • @katrinawalls2109
    @katrinawalls2109 Před 5 lety

    Not bad for a beginner .shot just a foot from the hook so it keeps the worms close down size 4 for STs and salmon three or four bradlings .lobs when it's high water. Fly does a better job most times....when you know the river.

    People saying he's catching fish downstream but normally fish swim upstream so he casts it upstream and let's it come downstream were a fish will normally be swimming upstream so it bumps into the bait on way up ?

      Takes time to master the ‘feel’ of the worm, but a great technique for both trout and salmon 👍😀

    Gutworm68 so you think we should not put fish back taken on a worm, WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE GOD. Next you will be telling us it hurts the fish.

    I thought upstreaming was best suited to low water conditions. That's cruel to worms as well. Which is why I only fish the fly.

    • @barrycooper8640
      @barrycooper8640 Před 6 lety +18

      If you think using worms for fishing is cruel then imho you shouldn't fish. You must be a feckin pansie.
