Grayling Fly Fishing Trip to the Lancashire Calder
A great day out fishing for grayling on the River Calder in Lancashire with a friend. The day was spent exploring the Ribble Trust day ticker beat of the River Calder where it joins the River Ribble. We'd not fished this beat before, so selected to fish down from its upper boundary to the junction with the Ribble. In the absence of rising fish, tight line nymphing proved to be the best approach and we caught several wonderful grayling.

    • @davidhumphreys7035
      @davidhumphreys7035 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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
      @DavidCESmith หลายเดือนก่อน

      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.

    • @hawker-overend5404

      Hi Kerry, It is hard to see on the video but the tip of the fly line moves during the take but you also feel it. I hope this helps, Andrew

    Fun bit is working out which of at least four River Derwents this is. Not that difficult, but for the wider audience I think it would be a courtesy to give some indication.

      Yes - It’s the lower beat of Llangollen-Maelor angling club and you can get a day ticket

      Usually, I fish at Llandderfel, near Bals, when the river is running off. Best fished when the Bala gauge is below 0.5m. Also, the Corwen beats above where the Alwen joins should fish OK when the Bala gauge is below 0.5m.

    What level was the river at? I am really keen to get out on the Dee again but it seems to be continually flooded. Thanks

    • @hawker-overend5404
      @hawker-overend5404 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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

    • @MarkBarter
      @MarkBarter 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Andrew, that is very helpful. I always look at the the Corwen gauge. I'll start looking at Manley going forward. I think I'll try and get out on Tuesday. Fisheries are fine but you can't beat a day on the river. I have been considering the tributaries of the Dee that the Corwen club control but I don't know enough about them really. @@hawker-overend5404

    Hiya Andrew, great informative video,, I have just joined Maelor/llangollen angling with the £88 yearly membership…. Does that now allow me access to fish?? Or do I have to now book and pay for day tickets when I want to fish?? Website for club is a little confusing 🤷‍♂️🙈 thanks in anticipation,,, Mark ( fished with my father on the available fly only beats about 20years ago…..
