Way to go girl--- out fish those boys!
Got to agree with you, most of the grayling are small, but are great fun on an ultralight or 3wt flyrod. I use a 3wt in the high mountains so every baby brookie feels like a monster! [laugh][laugh]
Greylings are fun because they are a different species, they are pretty, and they are in some beautiful high mountain lakes. Some of those lakes wouldn't have any fish because of winter kills, if it wasn't for the extra "toughness" of the greyling. I can't remember that they fight extra hard or not. The fought like a little fish on a light weight rod! Fun but not a fight like a fresh steelhead or salmon.
Anyway it is good to know there are some greyling lakes that are a little easier to get to. Thanks for sharing the info everyone!
