Lovely video and a beautiful location, I am envious! Grayling are making a comeback in our rivers now they are cleaning up after industrial pollution. They will feed when its too cold for other species, they are so beautiful and deserve their other name of "the lady of the stream". I never use heavy weights, feeders or tackle just a light rod, sometimes one of my old cane rods and a Nottingham centre pin. Light line and 14-16 hook, and trot maggots or worms using a stick or porcupine quill. Its old school but it works A grayling is a fish to be respected, they are beautiful, put up a good fight and its great to see you setting a good handling example, not everyone does!.

Try trotting a float through mate. its much more exciting watching it slide away, it helps putting up with the cold weather aswell as you sort of forget about it as much with you concentrating on watching your float 👍🎣

[@portcullis5622]

Lovely river and a perfect winter day for grayling fishing. I prefer to catch them on the float, but I do leger for them if I am struggling on the float, or need a rest and a cup of tea! Deep hooking can be a problem on the leger, so timing of the strike is important. I suspect that static fishing with the leger gives a better chance of picking up the bigger fish from swims that are hard (or impossible) to trot due to snags or overhanging tree cover. I enjoyed watching and I am looking forward to some cold, dry weather so that the rivers become fishable again.

[@adventurefishinguk]

thanks for watching and some good points made! I do fancy trying a bit of float fishing for them but it looks a little more complicated to rig up

[@portcullis5622]

@@adventurefishinguk To be honest, the only complicated part is assessing the depth. If the float keeps dragging under (even when held back), it is set too deep, so simply slide the float down a bit. All that is required is just float rubbers, an Avon float (or a stick float), a bunch of shot more than halfway down and a small shot about 12 inches above the hook to sink the bait and aid bite registration. Ideally, the bait should be just above the bottom. The float usually precedes the bait (current is faster at the surface) but the float can be held back at the end of each trot down. This causes the bait to rise in the water and can often induce a grayling to take. I would recommend practising on a clear area of river (on a fairly still day) without too much bankside herbage to get in the way. Once you have got the hang of it, then head to the areas where you know the grayling will be.

You ever find with grayling that they really need a rest before releasing? I never targeted grayling specifically but one of the rivers I frequent holds quite a few. Ive found quite often that even after unhooking quickly they dont like to swim off, maybe thats my habbit of holding fish upside down while unhooking to keep them calm, but yeah, as a carp fisherman turned float / river. Nobody ever told me that grayling are as delicate as they are! If anyone reads this, let your grayling rest in the net, even more than you would a barble or pike, they tire themselves out just the same if not more!!!

[@adventurefishinguk]

Funny you mention it, last time I went grayling fishing every one needed a good rest before releasing. This time they all were really keen to get off straight away. Maybe the colder it is, the easier it is for them to recover?

[@mgproryh]

@@adventurefishinguk Sorry lad long message here: Love the videos BTW I noticed in this video. When you said about holding them over water and that fish slipped away I could hear it swim off instantly, gone! Admittedly I've only had them out in summer / autumn I think your onto something there maybe the cold weather perks them up a bit. Grayling are so under targeted and amazingly beautiful. As you've done, get out on a river with a lighter spinning rod, and even though your not spining it gives you an amazing fight! If you ask me some of those lighter 5-15g spinning rods really do flick a float quite far. Id love to see a trent video from you one day! Lots of free (or incredibly cheap 2 quid day ticket on the bank sort've thing) stretches around nottingham city where im based, some lovely pike fishing to be had I cant tell you the amount of times I've had a pike chase in a roach. Even brought in half a minnow just a month ago! the perch are absolutely top quality too, its great for the predator fish. further out of the city barble and chub hang around, 10 foot out it will drop to 20-30 feet deep in places and its 100 meters wide yet crystal clear! so its a very interesting place to fish. It's mostly gravel bottom. If you did have interest in fishing the trent google "bob roberts trent guide" its a very updated map (2019), look at maps 23/24 thats all free fishing... as of recently two local lads pulled out some lovely carp from there too! It was thought for a long time (im 22 and we're talking before I was born!) that the carp had died off in that area but nope they're around still, recently I've seen bream jump out its a mishmash of every stillwater and river species you can imagine, insane stuff. The fishing there is something else, had pikes on maggots sortve crazy and its so underfished but so heavily trafficed that the fish do not spook!

@AdventureFishingUK thank you, main reason to get it is for lures but handy to have for bait setup if meed be

[@adventurefishinguk]

@@robertkirk1983 yeah it’s a great all rounder. If you do get one make sure you get 10% off with code AFUK10 will save you a few quid!

[@robertkirk1983]

@AdventureFishingUK will do, used your code earlier in year when bought predator rod and reel

[@stevewilliams5428]

Good fishin'. Take the plastic off the cork handle. Moisture can get under it and the cork will rot.

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks for the reminder and I’m glad you enjoyed the video!

[@dopey9842]

Sick vid mate, how heavy was the weight you used?

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate! I think this one was 15 grams

Hi George, great video! Fishing with Carl, Snagged Bro and yourself all seem to constantly fishing new spots. I’ve ordered a lightweight jig setup for myself for Christmas and bought myself a rod licence. However, I don’t know where I can and can’t fish, I’m able to find who owns the rights to the private lakes and some parts of the canals but how do I know who owns the smaller rivers and streams like in this video? Any tips on how to find where I can fish? Cheers mate!

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks for watching! Yeah I do like to search around and keep it mixed up. Google is the best resource try searching around the names of the streams etc, and just going and scouting the area out tends to work well too!

[@geoffpoole483]

Like George says, do your research. As a rule of thumb I'd want information confirmed by two or three people if relying on word of mouth. If the water is on private land a letter asking about fishing rights (enclose an s.a.e.) may produce the goods. A good old-fashioned letter probably makes a better impression than anemail these days. Quite a lot of rivers are free to fish. Tight lines!

[@JamesBrooks15]

I think I know this place. It looks very familiar to a place I’ve been to! Never fished it though but have wanted to!

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks for watching!

[@JamesBrooks15]

@@adventurefishingukyour videos are great mate! Love them!

[@adventurefishinguk]

@@JamesBrooks15 I appreciate that thanks for the kind words!

[@georgeholmes6099]

hi george nice video! does that weight move at all or not? is it trapped with 2 stops? also any leader used? cheers

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate! No leader, just thread a weight on, then one old school weight stop, then tie on a hook and the weight moves 👍

[@Agro.mtb123]

Great video mate love watching them keep it up colab with snagged bro again at some point???

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate! Hoping to be out filming with them again around march time 👍

[@Agro.mtb123]

Im 15 and a carp fisher man you should give it a try out on a mild rainy day you will have a lot of fun if you can hook one anyway keep up the good work and tight lines

[@fatfish6763]

Happy Christmas to you Two . All the best to you and yours fat fish

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate!

[@Tyrionownesall]

That viaduct looks like the 1 near me on the Welland? Before it becomes the main river ?

[@chadroberts44]

Grayling here have a big blue fin. I've never seen one with a red fin

[@adventurefishinguk]

They’re an amazing fish! Thanks for watching 👍

[@Roachy112]

Nice video, looks stunning, you don't half pull the head off them, go easy you'll land more there not pike lol

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate! It’s a very slow soft action rod with this tip in so no harm done!

[@StuWNZ]

Are they good eating fish like trout?

[@adventurefishinguk]

I couldn't say i've never had one, I think people eat them in scandanavia maybe?

[@SensitivityIsland]

Which rod was that? Rigged and Ready

[@adventurefishinguk]

It's the rigged and ready fish rig 180 👍

[@pennyebarry6208]

Just curious, do you need a trout stamp in Britain?

[@adventurefishinguk]

I don't know what that is so i'm assuming not!

[@tedscott1478]

I would have tried a worm there before moving on, you may have caught a bigger one, who knows😊

[@adventurefishinguk]

I'll have to remember worms next time i go 👍

[@DJ_Kie]

how do you find these places...

[@adventurefishinguk]

Word of mouth, research, maps etc. It takes a lot of time!

[@DJ_Kie]

@@adventurefishinguk i bet!! I been trying to find a decent spot near me just for some night fishing and theres literly nothing within a 3 hr drive that I can find online. What i find frustrating is that every bit of every water seems to be owned by somebody. Rivers especialy i find impossible to work out where and how you can fish. Have you ever had problems with fishing somewhere you not meant to?

[@highlystrung6766]

The Lady of the River! I refer to the Grayling by the way, not you pal, lol. Oh and i have fished this location many times. It's hard to keep it a secret with those arches looming. Also in your description you say 'Coarse' Grayling and Trout are 'Game' fish not Coarse. Targeting predators with a Lure is Coarse fishing. The fact your using Coarse tackle doesn't change the fact that they are Game fish. Some superb fish, treated with the upmost care. Great content, good fishing.

[@adventurefishinguk]

Good explanation. that's always something i've wondered about the distinction between coarse and game! Have you been fishing it recently?

[@marcharley6465]

I'm interested to know why you decided to ledger rather than fish with a float. Most coarse anglers would probably fish that pool with a float but your method was very productive.

[@adventurefishinguk]

No logic other than what I was most comfortable with! The only float fishing I’ve really done is for pike, ledgering seemed like the easier way to go about it!

[@NorthumberlandSnapper]

Brilliant little river. Looks very similar to my local, but I guess you'd not be this far north.

Is this the river stour by any chance maybe not

[@adventurefishinguk]

Sorry mate no clues from me!

[@10Fokker]

I think he caught the same fish five times

[@adventurefishinguk]

I’m not sure if any of them would take it a second time, quite possible though!

[@johnpritt3344]

What grayling have grey finns

[@johnpritt3344]

Bloody hell i was wrong i hold my hand up

[@adventurefishinguk]

I'm not 100% sure mate but i think the females have bigger more colourful ones than the males. Maybe the other way round
