The Traditional Fisherman's Forum

I have just set up a forum for grayling and who better to start it off than Jack Hargreaves, a lovely episode this one.

Whetted my appetite... :thumb:

Thanks SK

Very enjoyable, thank you.

Just watched it again.

Jack Hargreaves, a great inspiration to me as a boy and beautiful Grayling, my favourite fish.

Thanks for that.

There is a quite brilliant section in "Fishing for a Year" by Jack who explains why Grayling shoal, why they sit much lower in the water than trout and why they twist when rising and miss a lot of flies when they rise.

There is also another Jack "OUT of TOWN" programme on Grayling when he fishes the Kennet - again he explains the nature of the Grayling rise.

Nice video. I'd like to be fishing the Wharfe for grayling at this time of year.

Me too mate, hopefully not too long a wait....

Thanks

I'm lucky here because I can walk to my nearest river next to my farm and catch Grayling as long as the river is not flooded. I can see the river from the farm drive.
