Grayling Fly Fishing In Coloured River Water
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ต.ค. 2022
- Andy tackles his local river Dove hoping to catch grayling on the fly, but his session is just after a flood and there's coloured river water coming through the system. Using euro nymphing techniques and indicator fishing styles Andy is hoping to showcase fly fishing for grayling, these modern methods a step above the fly fishing basics.
In muddy water though things are always more tough, and when the conditions make thing difficult with the euro nymphing setup, indicator nymphing can be one of the best ways of winter fly fishing - but it doesn't always go to plan!

Welcome back in and Andy missed ya
cheers buddy!
Welcome back Andy!...all the best
cheers TK, much appreciated!
Another good vid with plenty of useful tips. Plenty of muddy water in this part of the world now.
Good this, real life situation we all face at some point, adaptation gets results. Just gotta keep pushing on✌️
thanks Mark, keep trying to make it work!
Welcome back and thanks for another great video!
Great vid Andy. You have so much useful knowledge
Good to see you back. Down here in the SW we've had no water for months and now almost too much. Looking forward to things settling down...and the first frosts to kill off some of the vegetation and make it seem like proper grayling time!
Great to see you back Andy, looking forward to more videos with you and IB
cheers Liam, will try to keep them coming!
Great video Andy and plenty of helpful tips mixed in with the entertainment as always.
cheers Kevin, glad there was something in there for you!
Another brilliant vid Andy. Great to see you back and thanks for taking the time to film these sessions. Great insight and tips as always 👌🎣
thanks bud, really appreciated!
Good to see you back😀
good to be back John! When are we out next?
@@IBandAndyFishing I was hoping to fix something up, but work pressure is making life difficult at the moment
Good to have you back that was still a good wee session for a few hours I would be happy with that 👍
cheers Neil, looking back the water conditions really weren't great, happy with the outcome I think
Good to see you back Andy,I enjoyed the video
thanks Len!
Wish I'd seen this on Sunday, might have had a productive day yesterday instead of a blank.
Anyway I have now also checked out the video about the indicator rig so may have a better idea about how to fish in those kind of conditions next time. Off to the website to order the Grayling pack
Loved the video! Grayling are awesome. Just subscribed. Keep it up!!
Great to see you back fishing 👍
good to be back, thanks very much for watching!
Great to see u back fella! Know how u felt this summer. I live in mid Wales and water levels have been incredibly low for a long long. Even the reservoirs here abouts have had very little water in them. I was hoping the lower levels would concentrate the fish more and finding the pods of wild brownies would be easier... Oh how wrong I was!!! Been the hardest fishing I've had for a long time. Even paid for some rainbow stocky bashing days to get some fish on the bank but I really don't enjoy it as much. Keep up the good work guys! Thanks for your time and efforts!
thanks Simon! Been a brutal season hasn't it?!
Great to see you back!
cheers Donald, much appreciated!
Great having you back!
thanks PJ, we both really appreciate it!
Great to see you wetting a line Andy. It looked a real tough day with the wind and coloured water. Hopefully with all that extra water it’s flushed some of the silt away.
It is so good to see you back on You Tube, Andy. Kelly and I will watch this tonight!
cheers phil, hope you guys are good and Kelly is on the mend!
@@IBandAndyFishing All good thanks and Kelly will improve once the medication is sorted. Great video guys!
Good to hear, she'll be back trout chasing in no time!
@@IBandAndyFishing she certainly will!
Always a pleasure to watch you posts. I wonder if you could tell us the depth of water and the length of your leader from indicator to point fly/indicator line to point fly and distance between the flies. Keep up the incredible work. Tight Lines from Iain Fraser in Essex.
Enjoyed this Andy, think you were a bit hard on yourself, tough conditions and you still managed to winkle out a few. Good save on the phone and #EuroWig was definitely the best method 🤪
cheers Zach! Only saved my phone temporarily though, on Sunday it went in the river never to be seen again!
He's alive! It's rubbish when life gets in the way of fishing. Hope it all settles down and works out and I pray the Grayling fishing is a lot better than the trout has been. Say hello to I.B 😉
thanks Graham, much appreciated!
About time guys :D Good to see you!
sorry about us, will try to keep them coming!
Hi Andy great video as always. Would u ever do a samlon fishing video?? and if so on what river??
Another great video, thanks very much IB & Andy. You mention that you’re using the two different set-ups for your session, is it possible for you to do a video where you lay them both out on the ground and clearly explain the differences, and pros and cons to each please?
Cheers, Lee
thanks Lee! You should find what you need here: th-cam.com/video/-abFnc0w05Q/w-d-xo.html
@@IBandAndyFishing Cheers Andy, that's spot-on.
You're welcome!
Hi Andy, good to see you back. At 8 mins in with the indicator are you fishing with the fly line on the water or keeping it off so in contact with the nymphs…or a bit of both? Cheers john
Hi Andy, another great video why don't you use tungsten off beads in the point fly so you're hook point is turned up side? And less hooked up by the riverbottom.
Thanks for those tutorials kind regards Herwig from 🇧🇪
Thanks Herwig! I'm never too convinced the the jig-hook makes too much of a different with hooking up on the bottom, i still find plenty of snags with jigs and jig-offs!
HI Andy. A great video as usual. I don't think you should beat yourself up because you didn't find as many grayling as you hoped. (a) the conditions weren't great - strong wind, lots of leaves on the surface making it hard to see takes. (b) water temperatures have been very high for a long time and this was the first time there has been a flush through the system for weeks if not months. The fish would probably have been uncomfortable to say the least and most unlikely to have been shoaling. On my "home" water (the Itchen) the fish have been picky and well spread out all over the river; I have been able to catch individuals, but with no consistency as to tactics or fly choice. I have had to work really hard for my fish. I reckon you did a good job!
Good video, but the river is low even though it's coloured (you can see by the amount of bank still showing). One of the problems with the Dove in winter is that it speeds up rapidly as all the weeds die back and nothing stems the flow anymore. This means even a slight lift becomes a torrent. Then the trick is to find some easy flow and especially eddy slacks close in. But find the fish and you often find a lot together.
So much to take from this, amazing stuff! Question: Do you think a 10ft 4wt is better for indicator than a 3wt? I currently use a 10ft 3wt for both indicator and euro but want another rod so can switch quickly (currently use same rod for both).
Good insight into fishing when you may have thought that the river was too coloured to catch fish. I have to question your sanity though over taking the phone out - why when you have IB filing and the chest mount Go Pro? My phone goes into a waterproof cover and does not come out until I'm on the bank.
Hi John, there's no IB here, I'm on my own! The second camera is on a bankstick. The footage of a fish from a mobile is so much nicer than from the gopro, pretty much every fish you've seen in a net onthe channel has been filmed with my mobile. It caught up with me eventually but it took four years!
Can you do some sea trout fishing please
Good save with the phone Andy 😂👍🏻
In Scotland we had drought all summer like England.But it's never stopped raining for the last few months.When euronymphing in wind.I often add a say a no4 split shot just below my sighter.It adds a certain amount of stability for take detection in poor conditions..I watched a video a few years back where the younger Jardine adds a heavy nymph to the top dropper for the same effect.Sometimes i add a heavy nymph but often a split shot instead. Nice to see the videos back.
It went in again on Sunday, but this time it didn't come back!
good tip Bob, I'll give that a go!
@@IBandAndyFishing oooo no 😫
Hi Andy is it possible to get in chat with you somewhere ? I have few for me very important questions and id love to chat with you
Did I notice correctly that you are wearing a back support belt. If so how do you find it? I definitely need one and am wondering which one to buy? Any thoughts?
It’s a wading belt, I got a cheap neoprene one online which works great. It’s more for safety than support. If you fall over it stops your waders quickly filling with water
@@120booker Oh okay, thanks.
sort of Michael, it's a wading belt which offers a bot more support than normal, this is the Wychwood one which has been quite good. Worth a go for £40
Hi Andy, love the videos. I'm a river angler that spends a lot of time trotting. I know very little about fly fishing but it's something I'm looking to getting into. I notice in the first part of this video you have decided to fish the inside line with the flow coming towards you. Why did you do this instead of fishing above the swim and letting the bait trot away from you down stream? By the way love the IB vrs Andy challenges! 👍
Hey Paris. I maybe jumping in here but in my experience there are a couple of reasons. 1stly it's tradition. On some rivers it is considered bad practice and unsporting. Also when trotting u have split shot and floats to aid the "trot" in the flow also helping to cover much longer distances which u don't get with flyfishing as the weight used to help cast is the main line itself and not really on the terminal tackle. That's also why a fly cast is multiple action to get load on the rod rather than using one twang of a weight loaded course rod. Hope that helps. There maybe other reasons that I haven't mentioned. Be interested to hear IB and Andy's thoughts tho
@@simongumn3154 Cheers for that mate. I guess you have to keep pulling your line in so there's no slack when you get a bite and need to strike
Yeah you do need too keep "in touch" with your fly tho a little slack is ok. Some people use strike indicators on their tippets (colored foam balls which act like a float) to help with this, tho I have never used them, I understand why a lot of people do!
Great question Paris, thanks for asking! It's very hard with fly kit to trot something downstream any distance and make it look natural, so in most situations a fly angler would be aiming upstream or across the river, getting a quality drag free drift as the rig comes back towards them
@@IBandAndyFishing Thanks for the reply 👍I'm going to try still waters first and then move on to tackling the rivers with a fly 😀
I'd have trotted maggots in conditions like that, but it's probably not allowed on there.
it is, and I bought a centrepin specifically to do just that, just never got round to it!
@@IBandAndyFishing That would be a good video.
