Fly fishing the RIVER WYE Wales - with HYWEL MORGAN - How to EURO NYMPH using a French Leader

We join Hywel Morgan on a famous Welsh river, the Wye, in the market town of Builth Wells, Mid-Wales. Hywel shows us how to fly fish a river for grayling and trout using modern Euronymph and French leader fishing techniques.

Crossed that bridge a few weeks ago and was jealous of the two guys fishing there….Beautiful spot looks full of promise. Great video again Hywel 😊

[@FishingInWales]

It's a fantastic bit of water :)

[@andreitechnics]

Great video, most these days are only interested in catching a fat lazy 50 lbs
carp !!

[@FishingInWales]

Wild fishing, on a stunning river

Does it help Hywel, when you speak to them? I speak to them often, but they don't seem to listen.
As a catch and release man, often, I try to kiss them good-bye also, but they rarely pucker up.
The fish are either shy or I might need to find a new approach.
Nicely done, by the way. A thumbs up from me. 👍

Talking to fish always seems to work!

[@colinludford4137]

Just discovered this and wondering about a trip next year. What’s the wading like at this venue as I’m not the world’s most confident!

[@FishingInWales]

Builth Town is one of the easiest beats on the Wye for wading, mostly gravel and fairly gentle sloping banks.

Informative video. Thinking about giving that a go this season, can you feel the bites or is it the sight indicator that's working for you ?

[@mikerapeer4848]

Great video. Very informative. Question what chest back do you have?

[@FishingInWales]

it's a Daiwa chest pack

[@2BeefHair]

How would you compare the stocks of brown trout in the upper Wye compared to say 30 years ago?

[@FishingInWales]

trout stocks seem to be very healthy on the upper Wye and tribs

[@mrutherford60]

Is that beat available through the Wye & Usk Fishing Passport, Hywel?

[@FishingInWales]

No, ticket in conti newsagents in the town

[@BigKleg]

What rod is that?

[@FishingInWales]

It looks like a Daiwa Air AGS 9/10 #3/4 Nymph special

[@wallogator11]

Fantastic video. But £15-£20 for a day ticket is daylight robbery.

[@FishingInWales]

@@wallogator11 thank you. DT price is only around £10, so one of the cheaper options on this part of the Wye.
