Three tips for catching trophy brown trout | with Tellus Fly Fishing
Catching trophy brown trout isn't for the faint of heart, but with the right mindset and approach, you'll be upping your chances in no time. Whether it's mastering your fly choice, dialing in your setups, or fishing alongside great company, there are a few key factors that make all the difference. Here are my top three tips for landing those big browns and why each one is crucial for success on the water.
1. Keep your fly in the water.
I’d go for a black zonker fly 10 out of 10 times. Super easy to use, and you can fish it in many different ways depending on the behavior of the fish.
Don’t get stuck in the same spot just because you know its a good one. Fish effectively but don’t rush things.
2. You gotta have the right set ups to be able to fish the rivers properly no matter the conditions.
This I would say is key, especially where we live, in Northern Sweden. The rivers are constantly changing, and could go from super high to super dry in a short period of time. And ofcourse, you need to trust the set ups you’re using, all the way from your backing to the fly.
3. Go fishing with good friends.
Its tough work, long days and dark nights so this is something I see great value in.
