| A nice plump 2lb+ Grayling for me on a cold winters day. |
What a Christmas Cracker! The cold spell we are experiencing at the moment leaves most species pretty much uncatchable as the low temperatures make them torpid.....except for the Grayling that is!
With frost on the ground and a real chill in the air my good friend Dave and I have been fishing the chalk streams and carriers of Southern England this week chasing 'the lady of the stream'. By simply trotting maggots or using a small block-end feeder we have been able to pick up this most handsome of fish whilst all the other species lie dormant.

If you can get out of the breeze then the sun feels wonderfully warm on your face and in fact not at all cold. It's a long dive for us but in conditions like these there is very little else willing to play ball. It was a good decision to hit the road and head West this morning, A good day was had by all - TIGHT LINES!
