Always learn something in your videos! Curious as to the brand of ring you use on the fly line loop. I’ve been on the hunt for truly small tippet rings, so far I’ve found that most 1mm rings aren’t appreciably smaller than the 2mm ones, and I could be going a lot smaller given the lines I’m using.

Learning loads here thank you Howard and Fulling Mill. Ive seen someone using split shot on the point as a sacrificial snap off instead of a point fly, then two flies both as droppers above the splitshot (a bit like a rotten bottom in sea angling). Any views on the pros and cons of such a method.
@FullingMillTV

It certainly can work, but sometimes fish hold at the depth of the split shot and you would want to have a fly there rather than the shot. Plus, we prefer to fish with confidence and risk loosing flies. You may loose more flies, but you will also catch more fish 😃

I rather enjoy trotting a float with a centrepin for grayling.

Nice. What I like the most about you, you always have in your arsenal some home made things (like that reel band you made). Those things bring you good luck. I believe. You also have some second rod holder and I guess that is also home made. It is difficult to carry two rods on the river and looks like you found good way. Are you satisfied with that solution?

It’s a home made one . The original was from pvc pipe but this is a carbon version made by a friend.

Howard that’s a great vid with lots of detail & ideas that will improve my fishing , thank you. Can you say what make/ type of clip on box you are using , it seems to have a magnet and foam to hook flys into easily?

Great video. I always struggle with striking when I think I'm ticking bottom. I'm almost always dragging my point fly along the bottom of the river, and I feel like if I struck on every indication I'd never be fishing. Am I just using too heavy a point fly? should I be keeping the point fly above the bottom by moving the rod tip?

Great video, this winter has been tough. Hard to find the grayling and they don’t seem to be shoaling up on the local

Thanks , worryingly the one constant I have seen this winter is that I’ve found most “shoaled” fish in areas with a lot of Cormorants- particularly on rivers in the Scottish Borders . Still it’s been a good winter season, the day we shot this was about the toughest day I’ve had .

Dear Howard, once again an excellent video, very well done. When you are fishing light tippets, what knots are you using? I use a three turn water knot for my droppers and a davy knot for my point fly. Is that your "terminal" knot in river competitions, too? Tight lines!
@howardcrostonflyfisher9227

More or less , I often use an untucked blood for the fly - really just because I can tie to fast and it really never lets me down .
