Nice session Ollie, can be pretty tough fishing in a glass out like that, but when the fish are in the mood to chase, happy days hey!

Fish were definitely a bit deeper but once we fished some faster lines they were happy to eat!

If you have ever opened the crop of a trout you will have seen enough bits of wood, stones and plant material scraps to know that NO it does not have to look like anything real at all. Tie up some flies that look like nothing real in this world and see what you catch, personally done it several times.

Great video, liked and subbed. Wondering what leader you prefer for dry dropper on a euro? I figure with the resistance of the dry and lack of weight only fishing one tungsten nymph on the anchor there’s a specific leader preferred?

@olliebassettflyfishing 2 ай бұрын

Cheers. I tend to stick with a regular level leader and try balance the size of the dry and nymph in terms of size/buoyancy and weight, though some guys prefer a thicker leader for dry dropper as it is a little more mass to cast

Are you fishing a micro-leader? What is your specific leader? Thanks

Always impressed at how big your fish are over there. I have a question: I don’t hear basically any talk from educational channels about using indicators with micro/spanish leaders. People talk about it occasionally with heavier 20lb-ish mono rigs but not with the light stuff. I understand that it’s not comp legal but it’s been such a successful technique for me for a lot of years because of the ability to keep line of the water at pretty long distance. Sometimes it’s just a better way to get a good drift if you can’t wade over far enough. Do you ever use a yarn indie or bobber in certain situations with 3/4/5x level leaders?

@theheronknowsprimewater1035 2 ай бұрын

Adding an indi to the micro leader has been really good for me on windy days

@olliebassettflyfishing 2 ай бұрын

I haven’t spent much time experimenting with it, though I can see how it might be useful in a scenario with high winds although usually I would fish with a dry dropper in that sort of situation or add a little more weight if I wanted to keep nymphing. However in terms of using an indictor on the level leader to fish further away I would normally rely on technique to cast light nymphs at distance without changing the leader or adding an indicator - I don’t really like the idea of having something tethering my flies to the faster surface currents as it will likely cause drag unless the current flow is very laminar and I was trying to suspend the nymphs.

@justaguy111 2 ай бұрын

Great video. I can't help but wonder if other factors such as bead size and depth of the fly affected the takes. Nonetheless, I will be adding some light pink beads to my next fly tying purchase.

The tungsten bead looks great.. it works well. I wonder with the smallest components as a tiny silver willow leaf blade,split ring & Spro makes the smallest power swivel. If that could be attached to this unique bead hook without messing up the finesse fly fishing presentation. After all fish cannot resist tiny baits..Who knows whatever colored tiny willow leaf blade.I learned this in a different direction of fishing in river ways & ponds. The tiny flash gets attention. I’m not a know it all,& not one style of fishing is the same everywhere.. Just a thought…

Hi mate! I’ve only fished it a few time but the 11’ 3/4 is a nice rod, light and good for casting, a little more like a 3wt. I suspect for Aussie the 11’ 2/3 could be good for small nymphs but I haven’t tried it before, although I have a few friends that fish with it.

@HalfInsaneOutdoorGuy 2 ай бұрын

Imo patterns do matter. On the one hand, we're all told they don't, but on the other hand, why do we have so many? And why does everyone have stories of no fish, then change to a different pattern and start catching fish, and also why are we told to match the hatch if it doesn't matter and why do eggs work well in Nov, and Dec. But not at all in June or July? (Depending on the river, right?) I do believe that the fish are most often talking the shiny bead to feel it, or just out of curiosity...because like you said, they are curious creatures and are using their mouths to see what it is.

@olliebassettflyfishing 2 ай бұрын

I think you’re right, sometime it matters a lot, and other times when the fish are feeding well but not very selectively it isn’t as influential.

@gordonmillsjr.1957 2 ай бұрын

My guess is that the fish thought the pink bead was an egg, but hard to judge by only a couple of fish. I’d love to see someone fish a whole session with single “nymph” - pink bead, silver bead and split shot & bare hook. Fascinating vid, great stuff 👍

Mostly presentation is more important. But, sometimes trout is very picky about fly size. Particularly, when they eat some small hatching emergers, they ignore bigger flies wich doesn't match the average size of preferred food item
