Hi, any advice on where and how to catch my first grayling. I hear single maggot and no free offerings is the way forward.
More the location really. Obviously I’m not asking for your favourite peg, river and town / village would be helpful.
Cheers people.

Re: Grayling
I have had a few this season from the Teme below Tenbury Wells. Level and temp about right at present. Best swims are steady, fairly shallow glides . Fish for 20 minutes and move on until you find them. I usually fish a six number four stick float with double maggot on 18 or 16 hook fished to drag along the bottom in current conditions. Should you be fortunate enough to catch one be very careful in handling and returning it, They fight until completely worn out and need to be unhooked gently and held facing upstream until they are strong enough to kick away.
Best of luck and take care on the slippery banks, Best take a rope and spike.

Re: Grayling
Hi Temester, thanks for the advice. I don’t think we will be allowed anywhere in about 2 mins.
But appreciate your input. Thanks for the heads up on the fish care. This is always top of list. I’m used to the barbel, so well rested and ensured a safe release.
Cheers buddy.
