3lbs + Grayling

Post by George387 »

Added another new PB for the river Clyde a couple of weekends ago when up visiting, a lovely fish of 3lbs 3oz, beating my old clyde record by 8oz.

Wonderful fish, I'm sure a Scottish 3lber is much more of a challenge than a Southern English one.

Wonderful George - fish dreams are made of. To complete the image could I ask for a few details of tactics -bait, size of hook, trotting?
