@irishlynch96 Thank you, sir! It's all too easy to criticise on this forum, so all compliments are gratefully received!

can u fly down strem and how do u catch bigger brown trout

[Polyfooka]

@conrod001 Well... you can, but you'd be tugging the fly against the current on the retrieve and no self-respecting trout would touch it! You want bigger trout? The trick there is knowing where they are: in the big lakes they like to stay deep, but you'll get them up the feeder rivers and streams during the spawning season - many would argue that isn't really the time to be pulling them out!

Question, when ur using a lure do u also use a weight so as to cast out the lure because the lures them selves are to light to cast & if u do use a weight how far from the lure do u put it? i hope some one can answer my question as i would love to try lure fishing! thank...

@WOLFGANGER666 A lure is never too light to cast! Invariably, if you feel the lure is too light, it is because your tackle is too heavy: the rod and line need to fit to the lure. The lighter you can go with your tackle, the more you'll savour the scrap.

With thoes hatcheries they put big stupid non-wilf fish in a small area...you pay by the inch usually and they starve them. I have heard of people trowing hooks at them andthe fish biting just because there so used to seeing people by the shore feeding them. No sport

its not real fishing like that just putting a fly in a small pond with huge fish who are hungry :( A real fisher has to eval;uate the weather, type of hatching fly's etc this is fishing when you actually use your experience and instinct to catch wild trout :)

greate under water footage

people always knock these fisherys cause they say its two easy and its stocked etc... i fly fish on rivers and lochs and stillwaters and have done for many years and hope to continue doing so... but the odd day visiting the likes of hampshires dever springs and avington and other big fish stalking waters in the south of england can be a very exiting experience, if ya dont like the idea of catching 20lb plus rainbows and browns well dont do it!! simple as that
