Hi
I'm new to the forums so just like to say hello.

I do a bit of fly fishing over the winter and only fish Marston Wyse fishery but is there any other trout/ Grayling fishing in the York area be it pond or river that might be worth having a go at ? I dont mind driving a little way.

Thanks

Lee

Hi Bruce
Thanks for the kind offer And I will probably try and take you up on that. I was at Marston last Friday and when I left I was top rod with 6 so had a good day. I only seem to do fly fishing over winter so have a lot to learn as I mainly match fish the rest of the year although I think my watercraft does help me.

I'm at work tomorrow so cant come but Im going to Marston on Wednesday if your free ?

Which rivers do you fish ?

Lee

lee , i fish all over mate ,wharfe ,ure,swale, cover,becks, etc if theres a river and i can fish it i will ,cant do wednesday lee as im at work ..

Hi
We'll have to try and get out on a weekend then. Have you tried Cod beck ? Ive never been myself but heard it has trout and grayling in also the Derwent has grayling but not sure in what numbers.

Lee

Hi mate

the Derwent does have Grayling but there arent any DT stretches. The YDAA year book used to have a Rye section with good Grayling fishing but havent been a member for years ...

Andy

It really does my shweed in all these no day ticket rivers in Yorkshire !!!!!!, all snapped up by clubs etc............... with 53 year waiting lists that only get longer, not to mention the price of membership !!!!

It's poop !

Hi Im a member of ydaa where abouts on the rye would you suggest and what sort of flies ? Same question applies to derwent where would you try ?

Lee

lee, ive not actually fished cod beck but it does hold quite a lot of grayling, lads in matches have had 20lb and upwards of them in the past..so yeah cod beck sounds good to me

Yorkshire fishing is sometimes hard to find but a bit of effort will find plenty of cheap and good flyfishing venues.Clubs to think about include Thirsk-Cod Beck; Sowerby- ditto; Northallerton- Swale- Richmond Swale etc.The Rye is harder - I waited 11 years ..
