2 Grayling

I'm a novice so pls bear with me. Caught one grayling on a PTN . Not much was rising. Had one or two decent rises but generally not much happening. There was a more experienced angler there and even he was struggling.
Beautiful place. Fish caught at head of "Lady Alexanders"

Wye Fishing Weekend (Part 2)

How pleasant to only have a 6 mile journey to the river instead of the usual 90; and another early start after, for some of us, far too much ale the night before. Buoyed up by yesterday's results, I fished French Nymph from the off. 2 Grayling in my first half dozen casts had me thinking I had cracked it but, before any smugness even had a chance to set in, the river came up 3 or 4 inches, with a nasty peaty colour, and pretty much killed it for the day. Hard work afterwards for the odd fish

The 2 "other" were Salmon Parr. I was hoping to add a different "other" to that tally - after hooking, and almost landing a huge Barbel, on totally inappropriate tackle, on a previous visit, I tackled up with a Reservoir rod after lunch, and went up river, determined to improve on my previous effort. Difficult to spot fish in the peaty water; but there was at least 1 Barbel there - said Barbel succeeding in ignoring all of my best efforts with bug and nymph.

River still low and fish wary, but an enjoyable day nonetheless

Fair bit of sunshine about this morning so I opted for dries. Klinkhammers and sherry spinners sparked interest on Lady Alexanders catch, but I couldn't connect. Switched to hares ears and ended the day with two small brownies and a decent graying.

good fishing in the morning, nymphing with French leader. Switch to dry in the afternoon, but not much activity, Just 4 graylings. It is a been pleasure sharing the beat with another gentle angler, coming from London too, enjoying together such pleasant day.
