In this episode David is saltwater fly fishing in Anglesey. It’s an overcast day and the water is clear, perfect for exploring the rocky coastline with a fly rod. Bass are prowling the surf, pollack are lying deep in the kelp beds, and shoals of mackerel could turn up at any moment. Join David as he talks through fly choice, presentation, and the excitement of hooking powerful saltwater fish on light tackle. It’s about the fishing, the coastal wildlife, and the feeling of standing in the tide with the chance of a wild fish gracing the line!

Fly Fishing Podcast - Winter Grayling After The Flood
The river has been high, and with some snow melt cooling the water (and toes), David ventures out for a final session on the Euro Nymph. It's a new year with new gear, but will the fish oblige?
Often recorded in the river, the Peaks Fly Fishing podcast is mainly geared around fishing trips in and around the Derbyshire Peak District & South Yorkshire. Sit back and listen to the river trickling past and discover the waters where Isaak Walton fished and the fish that live in them. Take in the magic of those hidden urban streams and the gems that can be caught. Recorded by fly fishing author, film maker and pro-coach David Johnson on his local rivers and sometimes further afield too. I fall in so you don't have to.
