Hi,

I really enjoyed this article. Thanks.

It's funny though. All I could think of while reading it was that when I was growing up in Nova Scotia fly fishing meant salmon. People tended to fish trout with worms. It wasn't unusual for people to fly fish for trout or anything like that, but the first thought would be flies for salmon and worms for trout.

Some of the British flies, Derbyshire Bumbles in particular (see Donald Nicholson's site), seem to have been specifically targeting greyling. Curiously, the British don't seem to have transplanted greyling anywhere near to the extent that trout were moved. I wonder if the "flies for trout or salmon" is more typical outside of the UK, while in the UK it's trout/salmon/greyling?
