@hawker-overend5404 Ай бұрын
I find they are OK but you have to compensate for the extra softness in the rod. I've not fished those rivers yet but hope to have a trip there soon.

Is the Grayling a course, or game fish ? I have eaten them in Sweden and wonder , in theory if they might be eaten here . Also can they be taken in winter , if they are big enough ?
@davidhumphreys7035 Ай бұрын
Classed as a coarse fish as it's breeding season coincides with the coarse fish closed season, mid March to Mid June. They are increasingly fished for by fly fishermen during the autumn and winter. Not sure about eating them.
@DavidCESmith Ай бұрын
Although they are often caught during the trout season, they are the mainstay for fly fisherman during the closed trout season, (unless you are fishing for migratory game fish). I have never seen a rule on the many beats that I have fished, that suggests that you can kill and take them. Some fly only trout waters allow Grayling fishing using coarse fishing methods, outside of the trout season (now also available on some river Test beats) but again, no fish are to be killed and taken. So I would suggest that they are viewed and treated as a course species.

Nice video, I've fished around Llangollen on the Dee for the past 20 years and find it a very fickle river, I've had blue ribbon days and also many blank days . On the blue ribbon days I feel I've been lucky and the blank ones I've felt I don't know what I'm doing. It's the challenge of not knowing which way the next day will go that makes me keep going back. P.S. also love the Dee up near Bala

Dry fly fishing: from the hook back, fullers earth say back to surgeons knot, then Red silicone all the way back to fly line including 4-5 yards of fly line.

Hi Mark, the level was 0.85m on the Manley Hall gauge. Currently, it's 1.1m and dropping slowly at Manley Hall, which is still a little too high. When it gets to <0.9m you can fish a few spots on the Country park and also Duncan's Pool from the right bank. If we don't get much rain it should be fishable in those places by Tue. More rain is forecast for Wednesday, so likely to rise again. I hope this helps, Andrew
