  We present the first results obtained using a tunable narrowband filter in
the search for high-z protoclusters. Using the recently commissioned red
tunable filter on the Gran Telescopio Canarias we have searched for Lya
emitters in a 75 arcmin^2 field centered on the z=4.413 radio galaxy
6C0140+326. With three different wavelength tunings we find a total of 27
unique candidate Lya emitters. The availability of three different wavelength
tunings allows us to make estimates of the redshifts for each of the objects.
It also allows us to separate a possible protocluster from structure in the
immediate foreground. This division shows that the foreground region contains
significantly fewer Lya emitters. Also, the spatial distribution of the objects
in the protocluster field deviates from a random distribution at the 2.5 sigma
level. The observed redshift distribution of the emitters is different from the
expected distribution of a blank field at the ~3 sigma level, with the Lya
emitters concentrated near the radio galaxy at z>4.38. The 6C0140+326 field is
denser by a factor of 9+/-5 than a blank field, and the number density of Lya
emitters close to the radio galaxy is similar to that of the z~4.1 protocluster
around TNJ1338-1942. We thus conclude that there is an overdensity of Lya
emitters around the radio galaxy 6C0140+326. This is one of few known
overdensities at such a high redshift.
