MAY BROWN TROUT FISHING
Posts
New tippet line ... I have been struggling over the last few months with the usual brands of tippet. I have been trying Climax 98 over the last couple of months and can say this has been the best tippet I have used. Not strength is excellent and turnover is also excellent. The 30m spools below I use for the Rainbow Trout fishing & the 9ft tapered leaders I use for the Brown Trout on the rivers Price wise the 9ft tapered leaders come in around £2.50 for a pack of 2 & the 30m spools come in around £3.99 per spool. Enjoy your fishing. Vid @ FishClyde

Well today was by far my most exciting day on the clyde landing this absolute lump of a brown trout... 69cm with the help of Jim Gourlay and it came to a spider pattern of a march brown.. chuffed doesn't describe it 🤣 🤣 thought it was a salmon until further inspection.what a lovely fish in the flesh, picture not showing the red spots but lovely fish, if an unusual colour for Clyde fish, possibly a stocked fish from years ago that's grown on.weight unknown but dad estimate much larger than his PB of 6lb, possibly upwards of 8lb,but who cares what a fish anyway.
