- It’s Christmas Eve and there’s nowhere we’d rather be than back on the river on a crisp winter’s morning. However, on this occasion we’ve briefly ditched the float rods and taken a huge step outside our comfort zone in an attempt to get to grips with a method that, over the last 2 decades, has seen a huge rise in popularity; Euro-nymphing.
Is the insurmountable excitement and enthusiasim shown by the ‘purist’ Grayling angler truly justified?
We’re about to find out.
Well done on attempting the nymphs lads. I think Alex is right on the features of the river, nothing really to focus on in terms of runs and seems, although the fish are obviously there. Baby steps guys, but still great to see your versatility on the channel👌👍 happy new year to you both and all the best for 2023.
Cheers Douglas, and to you to. Awra best fur 2023 🥃🎩👌

Great video sum very nice fish well done
Thank you James 🎩👌
Great video boys don't think you were doing anything wrong with the nymph method your best bet would be trying it on a beat you are familiar with build up some confidence. Nothing worse than trying a new method and struggling at it I do the same myself all the time. Looking forward to the next film.
Merry Xmas and a happy new year fellas 👍🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Yessss boys...😂😂😂 Although, most probs the most difficult way to catch your Grayling, particularly at this time of year...😁
I'd be trotting too... 👍
Some head of Grayling in that river, very surprised you don't pick uo more kelted trout...
Brilliant 👏
Living the dream 👍🏻🏴
Excellent video. I would love to fish there. 👍🏼
Thanks Rob 🎩👌
Stunning fish boys
Cheers Steven 🎩👌
Heavier nymph on the point maybe 5mm tungsten. An arm length between tippet ring and point 5” to dropper (smaller nymph, shrimp etc) depending on depth of water is how high you have indicator I usually go about 18” above tippet ring amnesia then 8” indicator. Above your indicator u want 16’ of amnesia onto your fly line. Try keep the tension so you can feel the nymphs bouncing of the bottom. If you keep your rod just above horizontal and line in your other hand youl feel the line go tight when they bite. Best of luck guys good video content tight lines
That's some good advice John, IF I get the gear back out I'll give it a go. 🎩👌
@@angling360 come down to Melrose one Sunday get a day in the tweed
Well done on getting a few fish. I see you appear to enjoy euro nymphing as much as I do. You were warned🙂
Alex Laurie
Haha. Yeah, I'm struggling to see the appeal. I'm not one for giving up though. I see it as a personal challenge now.
Hi lads just watching your video if your fishing floating indicator check out Andy Buckley set up and keep up the videos 😂
Hey. I've watched a few of Andy and IB's videos. I like the idea of the stick-on indicators, sandwiched either side of a hook, pinned in place by float stops. I'll be trying that soon. Looks awful but works a treat. Thanks for the continued comments.
Great video guys👍🏻. Do you ever fish the Clyde? Fished it as a boy and would love to know what it’s like these days
We do Gordon, The first chapter of A Winter's Tale is on the Clyde. We've had some nice grayling and trout from it over the years.
New to your channel so will definitely view it. Left Scotland in’83 and sorely miss the easy access to great rivers and lochs
@Gordon Watson where ever you are mate, we will do our best to bring Scotland to you 🎩👌🥃
Best thing to do guys is to go to fishires to practice iam sure they wil keep you right I'e pinwoods fishery they have a small pool to learn
It's a great beat big fishin each pool , I had around 40newbies over 2 years on beginners course ..
Defo give it another go, once this weather starts behaving.
It's not easy with wrong set up ,I use 11ft2wt and mono cast ,I had everything from 4 wt to 8wt show up at classes
Class troops,nymphing is for wallopers 🤣
🤣
