Spring Salmon Have Arrived at middle Tweed! Fly Fishing Scotland 2024

It's spring and I'm fishing for salmon on the middle part of the River Tweed, on a beat called Tweedswood. The River Tweed is a beautiful world renowned fishing destination. A worthy contributor to the reputation of fly fishing in Scotland.
In this salmon fishing vlog I share insights into the techniques I use, fly choice, and strategies. While very early in the 2024 spring season, there is still a chance for the odd salmon or sea trout. After years of trout fishing, I turned my hand to salmon fishing last year. I'm based in the Scottish Borders with the River Tweed on my doorstep.
Subscribe and join me fly fishing for salmon and trout throughout Scotland and beyond. Tight lines!

    Nice video. This morning I booked a day at Tweedhill in late April. And then I found your channel - good catch. If you have any products like Flex Seal you should try it before you buy new waders. Looking forward to more video intel on those rivers. Thanks

    Thanks, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Good stuff, I have never fished there but it looks good. Hope you get one 👍 I did patched the waders couple times all ready and this time I couldn’t find the leak. So I have decided to treat my self to new once 😉

    Well early season is hard graft... safe wading and casting. Will be downstream on Lees in April for my annual Tweed pilgrimage trying with a Gledswood and Willie Gunn...and maybe a Jingler or Greenwell if the Olives and March browns start hatching Simon Artley Manchester

    Anothher great video Tam, thanks for sharing. Congratulations and well done for your perseverance. Personally Not liking the amount. of upstream mending as (for me) it slows the fly way down.

    I paid £35 for this time of the year. It goes gradually up through the season up to £270 I think.
