My Biggest Sea Trout On The Fly!!

Published 2024-04-22
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.

    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, great fish, effort justly rewarded. I smiled seeing your hands shaking holding the line, its those moments that fishing is all about. A story to tell and a memory that will stay with you. Great job.

    Congrats Michael, absolute beauty of a sea trout..

    Well done, but two suggestions, a long handed large net and a heavier rod and leader (7 or 8lbs) to play the fish in quicker and tire it out less for release.
