The month of October is the best time for grayling in our stream. The gin clear water in fall makes it possible to spot them – very often it is the light-colored edge of the huge backfin that betrays the presence of a big grayling […]
Als bekennendes Land-Ei habe ich das Angeln als Kind natürlich mit dem Regenwurm im Dorfbach begonnen. Und schon damals haben mich die wunderschönen und oft erstaunlich großen Fische in diesen kleinen Bächen fasziniert. Diese Faszination hat bis heute nicht abgenommen…. Am letzten Wochenende ergab es […]
Aren’t grayling truely colorful? Why is it then, that the name “grayling” has its roots in the color “grey”, the french call it “l’ombre” which is “the shadow”, and the German name “Aesche” has to do with ashes? Winter is approaching and the fins of […]
Hello folks, finally managed to upload a video after a while… I filmed it two weeks ago. The day begann very rainy and windy, but at some point the sun came out and the evening was in fact pretty beautiful – the fall colors look […]

Fall is here, with warm days, golden trees and beautiful graylings. Such a sunday afternoon is hard to beat!
Sometimes you can be just lucky, sometimes the stars align, sometimes it all works out… and you catch the fish of a lifetime without warning! Like this grayling, which cracked my PB for the second time this year! I did not have time to go […]
Yesterday I just wanted to try a few nymphs I had tied “freestyle” during the afternoon… …so I went to the water to make a couple of casts and fish for two hours or so… october is a wonderful month, the forest shines in the […]
