Just moved to salt lake city Utah, and hear constantly about fly fishing in these parts, I will try to master your video FlyFishingUK. Have any suggestion's on a fly fishing outfit!!!! Thanks so much.

This is every useful. Roaring River in Missouri is going to have a "Trout Day." and fly fishing is the only way to catch something.

Great, helpful video :D

[itsmefergal]

Fantastic to see a Leading expert in action and taking the time to show us. Looking at some of the comments I would suggest maybe they take up another sport like GOLF perhaps . Remember GOLF spelt backwards is FLOG and that's what the vast majority of these golfers do every weekend. FLOG a little white ball up a big green field....18 times....Just a thought....!

[danlew99]

its an alright vid and the guys tried his best and i appreciate that but you learn jack shit

[bokonuko]

Very nice explanation from part 1 and 2. I'm going to have a go at fly fishing for the first time in a couple of weeks. Hopefully I'll be able to cast properly now that I've done some research and practiced. Thanks for the video!

[davidsquall351]

Thanks for posting this. I went out today for my first try and got 2 flies stuck up in a tree...lol. I didnt know about the roll cast. I bet I would have kept those two flies :)

[KRYSISJAG]

very informative thanks

[mparker07]

Thanks for the video. I'm new to fly fishing and I plan on using these tips when I take a trip to the Catskills in a few weeks.

[Unrealll6666]

I jusy came up with a new fishing style in my mind... I call it "storm the beaches" just send in 500 people into a river and in the confusion and chaos fishes will have no idea what to do and they will literally be jumping into the hands of the 500. I think fishes are smart and they understand our fishing tactics. Thats why fishing is harder these days. We need innovation.

[granthamicus]

Thumbs up for a great tutorial, going to try some Brook trout in the Colorado foothills tomorrow ... first time fly-casting.

Thanks again!

[RPH379]

What a great teacher.

[montymagic1987]

good video man, u know when you cast the line out and then you reel it in and point the rod down at the water just before you flick it up to 12 o'clock n out again, how much do leave the on the line from the end of rod to the fly tip/hook? if no what i mean sorry if this is a real novice question or stupid but in the video you cant see the fly tip when you whip the line back and cast it down the river do you reel the hook all the way back to the end of rod? im little confused

[ThePyroMusician]

Just brought some fly fishing gear today and thanks to your helpful tips i should be heading out tomorrow for a try :D

[FlyFishingUK]

@ThePyroMusician That's great to hear! Look forward to hearing about your first fish caught on the fly ;)

[djXentia]

@ThePyroMusician how did you do? :), / cowpow2k

[door2yourheart]

I have watched this at least 6 times and have failed to see the "firm stop at 11 o'clock" in any of the roll cast instructions. Also, i have watched several of your videos, mainly of you chatting to some one off camera, but also a bloke you taught double haul to. All are like watching paint dry. Sorry but it needs saying. There is very little to learn here.

[FlyFishingUK]

I'm sorry, Alan, that you have not found anything useful in my videos but thanks for subscribing to watch my future contributions.

Considering I have been fishing for 27 years and am proficient at catching most fish species in N. America on traditional tackle. I FULLY disagree. Though he was a little off on his geometry, the basics were well covered. I teach people many techniques at a basic level, yet I don't always use them as I teach them. Over many years of fishing, you tend to modify and perfect techniques. These habits are hard to break once you get used to them.

[dgash5]

Thank you so much. Just got done watch both of your videos. You are a great teachers. Watching you, showed me what I was doing wrorg. Had to get my rod and then to the back yard to practice.

[FlyFishingUK]

Thanks for your kind words. Glad the videos helped. Look forward to seeing videos of your results. ;0)

[onedrumgirl]

Just getting into fly fishing, thanks for these great vids, you really made it look easier than I thought it could be.

[FlyFishingUK]

Always glad to hear people taking up fly fishing. Hope you are doing well. Thanks for your comment.

[door2yourheart]

@onedrumgirl Did you actually learn anything? Looks can be deceptive. Some one showing off in a river is not necessarily informative, especially when the words contradict the actions.

[KaznBigG]

Excellent video, one of the best for advising beginners like me :o)

Great bloke and easy to listen to and you make it all very clear and simple to understand, any tips for Northants resovoirs ?

[FlyFishingUK]

Thanks for your kind words, Kaz 'n' BigG. Have you tried Eyebrook Trout Fishery not too far from Northants? It really is a great fishing location. I am now running courses there so look forward to seeing you there.

[Calumryan]

nice vid, havn't fished for over ten years, but recently i was given all my grandads gear, planning on going next week, need to practice my casting but this video was a good stepping stone

[FlyFishingUK]

Good for you, Ryan, I'm sure you'll get back into it in no time. Check back here soon for more videos or check out my blog for other useful tips.

[GRAYLING14]

Good tips and very helpful to the learner fly fisher, very good!

[FlyFishingUK]

Thanks very much, I'm happy to have helped.

[harrywhitesock]

PS: It would be great if you made a video about what flies to use to target certain fish and in certain surroundings.

[FlyFishingUK]

I will definitely get round to it one of these days. Thanks for the suggestion.

[harrywhitesock]
