Hi Ian.

Nice to know the Alyn has a good head of Grayling.

Do you have any information on the Coquet? This river cant be far from you. I hear the Coquet mentioned from time to time but i have never met anyone who has fished it.

I'd like to know if there are any day ticket sretches available & a few tips to get me going as i intend to give this river a try sometime this year. Thank you.

Regards Stevie.

A fine fish. I do love the grayling as as fish to target.

coppernymph2,

Now that is what you call a fish...nice...did you catch any on the dry fly or were they all caught on sub surface nymphs ...if you can remember that is.
The Alyn seems to be a very well managed river with a good head of fish especially the ladies of the stream

Thanks for posting

On the day I wrote about I had about equal on the dry and nymphs , but when I say nymphing what I was doing was holding back and letting the nymphs rise and then letting them drop as I slackened of downstream, the beauty of Tenkara that you can do anything you want so instead of just ordinary nymphing you can impart movement into the nymphs and the dry as well. The possibilitys are endless, gone are the days trying of trying to get the flys to the fish at the mercy of cross currents and awkward lies, give the flies a good working and catch more fish.
