Alaskan rivers have artic Grayling (Thymallus arcticus) . I fished some northern British Colombian rivers on the chance of a catch, but no luck. I'm back in the UK now, so I'd love to catch the local grayling in the area I live now...... tight lines.
Thanks Lindsay. That was excellent. Jackie and I have never tried fishing for Grayling, but our local river, The Derwent in NE England has a good reputation and we intend giving it a go. Thanks for your advice.
Great informative video, Lindsay. Grayling have always been a mystery to me, so thank you for enlightening me enough to say 'i could get into that' ! Ive two good kidneys, so i could sell one for a day or two fishing on the itchin or test..... ill let you know how that goes 😂
Great video Lindsay with very good information. Due to recent mild weather most of the grayling I have caught recently have been to dries. Spotted them rising usually after leaf fall though greenfly patterns haven't worked, parachute dries in sizes 14 and 16 have!
I'd love to catch a grayling. Especially since Ohio is basically a desert now and trout can get up the rivers that are smaller than a piss stream Edit: Awesome video BTW. Wish id brought some fishing gear when I was over there for about a third of a summer when I was 16. Always remember falling asleep on a tour bus in Ireland and upon waking up saw an incredible looking stream. Then passed a fly shop a minute later. Wish I could go back one day but I'm poor. I was only able yo go thanks to a friend's generosity
@lindsayiflyfish we def. used to. I mean depending on where you are. But if you're without a boat, Steelhead is king, and climate change is killing it. It's 70 plus in November and dryer than a mummy's snatch. Not to be depressing, it just sucks. I lost nearly everything, this was all I had left. Edit: if I find a way to get rain, may e ritual sacrifice, you'll have to make a trip out here.
Please pardon my ignorance... I am in Washington State, USA and I don't believe I've heard the term "chalk stream". Can you enlighten me? Love the channel! I have learned a lot of excellent stillwater fly patterns thanbks to you!
Thanks for watching. An English chalk stream is a unique type of freshwater river found primarily in southern England, characterized by its clear, mineral-rich waters that flow over chalk bedrock. These streams originate from underground aquifers, where rainwater filters through chalk, resulting in a stable and consistent flow. The water is typically cool and well-oxygenated, supporting diverse aquatic life, including trout, grayling, and various invertebrates. Chalk streams are renowned for their picturesque settings, often flanked by lush vegetation and wildlife.
One of your best videos and formats to date IMO Lindsay …thank you 👏 look forward to many more
Thanks 👍
Great video and excellent production. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wish we had more of them in the states, beautiful fish
They are stunning.

@@skookumjack I believe the Artic Grayling can get really big. I would love to have a crack at them.
Very informative video Lindsay, you've given me much food for thought.
Thank you, hope it helps.

Another good vid mate! Who was it you sent for the swim this time😂
Stephen was a good sport!
Thank you .
Welcome.
Nice video Lindsay, what's the pink thing at the end of your rod and reel please?
Its a couple of hair bands looped together so the leader can sit on them when I am moving locations.
@lindsayiflyfish ah right, no hook keeper on the rod.
Hi Lindsay. The lads at work have bought me Shakespeare 10’ 4# as a retirement gift is this any good?
A wee bit on the heavy side for Euronymphing. Should do to start though.
@ i fish mainly spiders and Ptn, grhe and drys have yet to try Czech nymphing
How do you know if Grayling in your river wee Eachaig Dunoon
You will need to look for them, easy enough in a clear river. Not so easy if the water is coloured.
