Arctic Graylings?

[riverdog]

I hope Joni my comments about agreeing with showing off were lighthearted joking. I thought that was also what Brookieboy was doing. I guess he can speak for himself if he wants. My comments about disagreeing about the fight of grayling is just my experience and what I've heard a handful of others state that generally agree with my assessment. Joni is the only person I ever heard tout the fight of a grayling. If she or anyone else disagrees with me that's fine- give your opinion. However I didn't post that to just disagree with her. In my opinion you should be fishing for grayling in Utah for the novelty and will be sorely disappointed if you think they fight like kamloops. On top of that in Utah they are extremely small fish ( almost all are single digit in ounces and inches). Between those 2 factors I consider them the most difficult fish to detect their bite or even if you have one hooked in still water. I'd strongly suggest using the lightest rod you have if targeting them. I have great memories of taking my son and his friend fishing in a lake with them a few years ago. His friend's younger sister tagged along. None of the kids had ever caught a grayling before. Not only did she out fished the 2 boys combined overall in trout and grayling but she caught her first grayling before either of the boys.
