Default Grayling fishing ireland

Anyone know if there is any grayling fishing in Ireland? I have never heard tell of anyone catching one..

To be honest it is not something that has ever interested me, but i guess i shouldn't knock it until i try it eh?
I'm not sure why they don't interest me, maybe it's because in most of the pics i see they are pretty small?

Cheers
JJ

I have been going to Ireland for over forty years now and have never heard of any Grayling being caught, i don't think they have any in their rivers.
