A small picture taken by Gary of me fishing the Holme with my new Tenkara rod.

And the line froze in the rod rings, but sadly, no grayling pictures:

It was so cold there the margins of the River Ure were frozen:

And behind me one of the other 3 Peaks, Whernside, covered in snow at daybreak:

It was worth spending the day stood in a freezin river just for the drive to Hawes. Here the sunrises behind Pen-y-ghent

Last fish of the trip, another fine Cozumel bonefish.

A good bonefish caught whilst wading the lagoons on the northern tip of Cozumel.

Even the wife gets in on the action! Spinning (yuk) for barracuda (pictured) & mangrove snapper.

Bonefishing gets you close to amazing wildlife such as these pink spoonbills on Cozumel

A few pictures from bonefishing in Mexico coming up...this one caught from the boat:

Yours truly with biggest fish of the day, a 2.25lb beauty.

A good Itchen grayling comes to hand. This fish was spotted less than a rod's length away whilst wading across the river. I froze & 'plopped' the nymph in front of it, which it promptly took - even now fish still surprise me! Always learning.

First grayling of the day, just under 2lb:

Chris play a good grayling on the River Anton. All fish taken on nymphs; Mary Copperheads (mostly) & Baetis Nymphs.

A lump of a grayling from the River Anton (a chalkstream in the south of England, tributary of the River Test). My biggest grayling of the day on a Mary Copperhead.

Client fishing Czech Nymphs in a very high River Ure, Masham.

Mid-Ribble - giving a casting lesson in single handed Spey casting. Pendle Hill in the distance.

A windy Grafham Water yesterday. Pictured is my boat partner, friend & fellow instructor Malcolm Hunter. Despite the tough conditions he still looks happy!

@Lancashirefly trying out one of the new Hardy Greys rods at the Tackle & Gun show on Sunday.

A promising looking 'grayling pool' on the River Ure at Hawes. Stunning setting!
