GRAYLING FISHING - TROTTING WITH MAGGOTS
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ต.ค. 2024
- Join me grayling fishing on a stunning river in Hampshire. I get to grips with trotting for grayling using maggots as bait. A perfect way to spend a day in Winter on the banks of the river in pursuit of such a stunning fish. We look at tackle and rigs before simply enjoying the day and catching some stunning fish.

Almost made me emotional seeing someone discover the joys of trotting AND grayling!! I was lucky enough to grow up fishing good grayling rivers, something I almost took for granted, now I live elsewhere and the realisation has struck!
Can’t believe I’ve left it so long. Definitely will be a key part of my winter fishing from now on. A lovely way to fish. Are there other species that you could trot for?
@@Lifeonthebank chub! Trotting bread for chub is awesome. Quality dace always come to well presented stickfloat tactics
The Test is a lovely river and a privilege to fish. It shows the quality of the fishing that my best dace, roach, grayling, brown trout and sea trout all came from the Test.
The Test is an absolutely beautiful river. You definitely feel like you’re somewhere a bit special.
All the fish were nice but you carnt beat catching what you went out for. Gorgeous grayling well done.🎣😎🐟
We got there in the end!!! Thanks for checking it out 👍👍👍
Always have every video I need Nick🙌🙌 amazing.
Cheers mate! Looking forward to winter already. Love those Grayling 😍
Looks like a lovely days fishing. Can’t wait to get on the river . Them Grayling look Stunning. Trout not bad either.
Get out there mate. A lovely way to fish through winter. Cheers 👍👍👍
Very nice handling of the fish. Nice trouts..
Thanks for checking out the video! Love these fish!! 👍👍👍
Fabulous video, beautiful river, stunning Grayling some of those Brownies weren't too bad either. Tight lines
Thanks!!! I just need them to lift the travel restrictions so that I can have another go at them! Thanks for watching the videos! 👍👍👍
Enjoyed the video, nice to see some big greyling! Trotting a stick float is one of my favourite methods of catching and that river looks spot on!
Something I’m going to do more of and hopefully master. Can’t believe I’ve not done more of this. Thanks for watching the video 👍🙏
I laughed out loud when u said I " I took the centre pin off " . You could almost hear all the purists screaming out "heresy"! I had one once and I was super shite at using it. Would love to try one again and get proficient at it. They r supposed to be super rewarding once you have mastered them. Great video and beautiful fish, thanks for sharing.
Was waiting for the hate mail today!!! 😂😂😂 once I’ve got used to the 15ft rod I might add a pin! Enjoyed it though. Nice to try new things 👍👍👍
Great video, loved it
Thanks for checking it out 🙌🙏
Realy enjoy all your videos,just started perch fishing trying to get away from carp fishing and back to what I did when I was a kid.
You won’t regret it. I just think its nice to mix things up a bit. But year, simple float tactics does take me back to my schoolboy fishing!!! Thanks for watching 👏👏👏
One thing I miss about England is the chalkstreams. The wey, test, Shroom, Itchen. Those rivers are heavenly beautiful. I live in Hungary now and though has some nice rivers and lakes nothing compares to an English chalkstream
We are blessed with chalk. I went last weekend so another grayling video will be uploaded soon! 👍
Fished that stretch quite a few times myself lovely isn’t it, as a midlander bit of an eyeopener on what a chalkstream can offer
I had such a nice day there. Beautiful surroundings and we even managed a few fish 👍
Great video nick really enjoyable it really is an artform to trot a float really well wot a grayling that was to end the session well done cheers tightlines
Beginners luck! Definitely will be doing more trotting in the future. Lovely way to fish. Thanks for watching 👍👍👍
hey man theres a brilliant place where i caught a 3lb grayling in the river itchen on the itchen navigatio in bishopstoke eastleigh but u need to be apart of eadac to fish there man but i highly reccomend it
Love a days grayling fishing all the best fae Scotland mate tightlines.
Cannot wait to start fishing for these again soon. Still too warm atm.
Very enjoyable video,trotting for grayling is one of my favourite forms of fishing, haven't done it yet this season but I will be on it on the river Frome v.soon with the centre pin.congrats on ur first quality grayling, well done👍
Cheers Dave. Was really chuffed. Can’t wait to go again!!!
What a philistine not using a pin its sacrilege!!! Seriously using one for trotting is far superior to a fixed spool reel. I have not used one a great deal but once i did I thought it was easier far mor control over the float and the best things are not having to piddle about with the bail arm or worring about the spool being fully loaded. Looks a cracking stretch and a stunning grayling at the end.
😂😂😂 I was absolutely expecting this! Outrageous, I know! Maybe on the pin in the future mate. Thanks for checking out the video. 👍👍👍
Just found your channel mate where abouts in UK are you here I'm in Northumberland we fish for trout and grayling here too
Well done Nick. Thoroughly enjoyable 🤟🏻
Thanks Jason. Not my area of expertise as you can tell! But actually loved it and will definitely be doing a bit more before the season ends. Thanks for checking it out! 👍👍👍
Proper fishing!, Love a good days Grayling trotting on my local Yorkshire rivers
Absolutely agree. Always loved float fishing and it doesn’t get better than this. Thanks for checking out the video 👍👍👍
Which Yorkshire rivers are you fishing? There's plenty in the Wharfe, love going after them this time of year.
@@nickmunton6293 Swale and Ure plus some of their feeder streams
Nice, there's a guy on one of the local FB pages that fishes the swale a bit. Catches a lot of decent chub. Used to fish Skipto On Swale years ago.
Well done Nick awesome fish! Grayling are abit of a bogey species for me, targeted them a few times and only caught a handful. Sure I'll try to put that right soon!
I’m sure you will put that right mate. Took me a few goes to get a result. Look forward to seeing you catch some before the end of the season maybe? Travel restrictions will stop me fishing for them, unless they’re lifted 😞
Quality video nick love the grayling especially on the fly really enjoyed the video,para
Yeah, I’d still like to get a decent one of the fly. Thanks for watching as always 👍🙏
Nick merry Xmas to you mate have a good 1,para
Love your channel, have seen many of your films today. Keep it up 2021!
Thanks for your support. It means so much. 🙏
Fair play, looks like a nice session. Something I’ve not done trotting for Grayling, what’s the fight like compared to other fish?
Thanks mate. You’re heart is in your mouth, but not because the fight is particularly fierce but because they’re quite delicate and can drop off! You know when it’s a big one and you’re preying it stays on all the way to the net!!! 👍
A species I've not caught so will be looking forward to catching one soon great fishing well done
Definitely give it a go! You’ll love it. Thanks for watching 👍🙏🙏
Well done, cracking fish that big grayling, I find that if you go out and do what you did, fish for a new species by a method you are not used to, it automatically takes you back to your early memories of fishing, and that intense excitement when you catch what you are looking for.
Great video, some nice trout in there too, not to be overlooked either.
Hope you great Christmas and a very happy and healthy 2021.
Cheers
Awesome Nick!
That looks so much fun,got to try it!👍
Definitely do mate. You’ll love it 👍👍👍
Another absolutely belting vlog and session buddy, that grayling was a superb fish. Without a shadow of a doubt you are a superb all round angler, couple that with great presenting and editing of your vlogs makes your channel one of the best on you tube in my opinion. Hats off to ya and thankyou for the superb videos you make, they are always an outstanding watch. Hope you have a great week and Best wishes and stay safe and well to you and your family buddy, also hope you have an awesome Xmas and New year. And ultimately tight lines too 🎣
You really are so very kind 🙏 So pleased that you enjoy the channel. I’ve very much enjoyed putting the videos together this year. Hope you have an amazing Christmas and I look forward to sharing more angling adventures with you next year!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Great video Nick.... I’ve wanted to do some Grayling fishing for sometime, going to have to do it now!
Thanks mate. Definitely give it a go. Great way of fishing. Helps you practice your finesse. They’re quite a tricky, delicate fish. Let me know how you get on! 👍
@@Lifeonthebank Cheers Nick! May have to wait until I get out of Tier 4 now.....have a good Christmas!
What river is that looks nice
Hiya nick happy new year mate. Iv never tried trotting on a river before but its definitely on the cards for this year. Quick question mate. Where do you get your ned rig hooks from? because i cannot find a pack of them to save my life.
I get Snapper ones directly from Korum. Have you tried Angling Direct or maybe AMG?
@@Lifeonthebank thanks as always mate ill take a look 👍
Great video as always! Tight lines
Thank you mate 👍👍👍
@@Lifeonthebank I have watched all your videos now, I love your style of doing it. Great work man, top stuff.
Went trotting for grayling today myself, no joys though haha
Frome is the Mecca for British grayling fishing! Get yasen down nick lad!👌🔥🎣
100% it’s totally on my radar. Just need these travel restrictions to f*ck off! 🤣
@@Lifeonthebank don't we just mate! Another good venue for monster perch is the upper great Ouse or the Claydon brook Cambridge.👍🎣
To me, the purest form of angling is trotting for grayling! That sums up proper English wild fishing! I'd rather trot a swim for a 3lb grayling than catch a big carp! Anyday a week! That and long-trottjng for big roach!👌
Can’t argue with that at all. Shame that travel restrictions might stop me doing this again before the end of the season. I love the finesse required when angling for these beautiful fish 👌
@@Lifeonthebank ya not wrong nick! Wicked videos mate keep it up lad!
Top man. Thanks for following the channel. Good luck with your fishing 😉🙏
@@Lifeonthebank and you nick, thank you!🎣
Never caught Grayling. But would certainly like to! If Mark doesn't contact you I'll take the reel off your hands 👐 😉
Such a beautiful fish. Mark has been in touch. Sorry about that!!! 😂
@@Lifeonthebank Shame...😂
Congratulations mark 😐 gutted 😂
Better luck next time mate!
Would you ever make a video on trout?
Absolutely I would. Love a bit of fly fishing!!! 👍
There's grayling in the aire... youbthink you could catch them on spinners? I'm guessing it's finding the right spots.. and of course that little fish counts 🤣
I bet you could. Flies definitely work!
I always get a bit disappointed when I catch a grayling As I’m only after wild browns. These days I only dry fly for them as I found it far too easy trotting worm or maggot.
Yeah, as you saw I started on the fly. One day I will get a decent one on the fly but did enjoy my day trotting.
Mate I know how much this means to you, great to share it with you from 4000miles away ...you will be having more on the pin soon : )
Cheers mate. You definitely know it meant a lot!!! Nice to get a proper one after a couple of failed attempts. Thanks for watching the vids mate. Love your FB posts. I trust you’ve now settled in quite nicely!?☀️ 👍👍👍
Wait you have a dog what’s the dogs name,
Hi Amber. His name is George 🙂🐶
River Itchen?
I’m early hello everyone
Tolles Video, habe dich über mein Interesse an einer Centrepin Rolle gefunden
Pity the float is invisible.
Can’t take pictures of trout out of season they don’t count 😂
This is very true! Outrageous I know! 🤣🤣🤣
belting grayling is that...my best is about 1 half pound just over up in yorkshire but such a great way of fishing ..im no expert at it but getting better...great fish great vid as usual
Yeah, as you probably gathered I’m no expert either! 😂 But what a stunning day on the river and an awesome fish at the last knockings! 👍👍😂
@@Lifeonthebank not easiest of methods but i the the rewards are great its really satifying way of fishing
49 years old
Just a youngster! 😂
Samoln par= baby salmon
Could you tell we were a bit clueless 🤣 We don’t get many of those up here on the Lea! 🤣
@@Lifeonthebank I only know cos I saw Matt Hayes catch one once on the Severn on TF 🤣
