Jack Westbury - Grayling Fishing
Send us a textEpisode 308 - Jack Westbury on Grayling FishingThose clear, cold days aren't far off now and with that in mind, I caught up with angler Jack Westbury to pick up some tips regarding fishing for grayling.I learn a lot as he tells me about leader set up, spacing of flies, controlling the drift and manipulation of flies.We also cover tackle choices and his preference for longer rods.We discuss his trout fishing too, including long leaders and micro drag.Being based in Derbyshire, he spends a lot of time at the fly fishing shop, Mallon and Green. We talk about how Marie and John have made the shop the hub of the local fishing community.Jack talks great sense that I'm sure you'll gain something useful from.
