My Biggest Sea Trout On The Fly!!

Спорт

Absolutely over the moon with my recent capture of a personal best Sea Trout while Fly Fishing, The Fight was completely unbelievable, it took over 10 minutes to land this beautiful specimen. With the stormy weather due to arrive again here on the west coast of Scotland l am glad I managed to get out to wet a line. Hopefully you enjoy the upload

    It was the boy and I that came across you on the beach. Well done (again). Great to see the fight it had put up, they really don't like getting caught. Timed it nicely, the weather became completely unfishable within the hour.

    Hi Iain, that day I tried catching up with you and the lad after the catch unfortunately I couldn’t find you guys, I really want to thank you and the boy for helping me release the fish, really appreciate that, and yes that weather turned drastically! I walked back to my car absolutely soaking 😂 it was an absolute pleasure to meet you guys, hopefully I see you around the foreshore again, tightlines

    The reason you were struggling to net it was each time you lifted it towards the net you walked forward towards it splashing as you went, thereby spooking the fish. Try standing still, crouch down to reduce your silhouette and slide the fish over a stationary net. Works every time. Also a folding net with a longer handle helps.

    Well done Michael, lovely fish! Did you say you were using a 4lb leader! For sea trout in the sea I'd use 8lb. They are not usually line shy in the salt. Also a good idea to try get the line on the reel as soon as possible. I thought the fish at one point was going to get tangled in your line. You'll remember that fish for a long time!

And low and behold I didn’t have my 8 Pound Diawa sensor with me, instead it was 4 Pound kamasan, something that I could have regretted, thankfully it just stayed on, but your Totally right, 8 pound minimum and also agree with you getting it on the reel ASAP my friend Logan is always advising me to do this! Thanks for the advice mate, really appreciated

    Congratulations on a magnificent fish. I am surprised you don't use a stripping basket of any sort. That would keep your line out of the tide and any chance of getting it caught in the bladderwrack or barnacle covered rocks. All that loose line is a danger for the fish to run into, or get caught in floating weed. A stripping basket made from a potty-training step, or a washing up bowl works perfectly.

    great catch - but please get it on the reel much faster - that slack line all lying in a heap in the water was driving my OCD mad lol. Just trap the loose line under your pinky and wind the slack onto the reel asap. Raising the rod behind you while keeping the net in the water will make landing easier also. So happy for you that you got it though - what a fish!

    He was driving me crazy with the lack of line control….the fish gods are just waiting to throw a tangle in that line! Let the fish take as much as possible by relaxing your fingers under control or reel in some line while fighting the fish! True … both are risky no doubt but to do nothing isn’t a better choice, imo!

    Cracking fish welldone . But please make your life easier by purchasing a proper Sea trout extendable net with at least a minimum of 22inch diameter frame and mono or fluorocarbon of minimum 8lb test . Sea trout can grow to double figures . I've caught them to 8lb and my father had one of at least 14 lb . If you lose a fish of a lifetime due to net or mono . It will haunt you for the rest of your life .

    I was stressing watching that because of the loose line, I knew you caught it because of the title. Just spine the wheel of your reel in fast, with the palm your left hand, or you are going to regret it one day with a big fish on. Well done tho on a great catch on a terrible day for it. Is that the Clyde estuary.
