i think they taste great especially from a chalke stream,i love to catch grayling,my biggest being 1lb 4oz but boy do they fight! when they get downstream and use that huge fin its like trying to pull a bin bag up stream! i tried many different flies but settled for a Yorkshire fly called a Terry's terror,it had a red and yellow floss tail peathingy hurl body with gold rib topped with a red game hackle.the wet fly version was the same just tied with hens hackle.by far the best fishing for old thymallus thymallus is on the Avon above the piscatorial society's water at west amesbury,near stonehenge,a crisp February morning 8 am with the frost still hard on the ground,finishing by 11am in time to get an all day breccy at friar Tuck's greasy spoon!!!!
