  • IB and Andy are invited to fish the river Anton by Pete Mcleod from ‪@AardvarkMcLeodFlyFishing‬ ! IB is a chalk stream beginner, Andy hasn't fly fished a chalkstream in years so they'll need plenty of help fishing the gin clear water in southern England. Tackling up with dry fly rigs, they tackle the rivers of Hampshire hoping for brown trout and grayling. Can they stalk their trout, or will they need more hints, tips and tricks from Pete?

    "You don't wade in chalk streams". Not strictly true. On the stretch of the upper Avon where I fish there is much you couldn't fish due to the trees and bank-side phragmites if you didn't get into the river. It's kept as wild as possible.

      Simply because it is a business. There is a demand, and this is the supply. The same situation applies along most of the Test, Test tributaries, the Itchen, and Hampshire/Wiltshire Avon. Unless (until?) modern man is removed from the processes, these classic streams will never regain their natural state, with trout of a size that state can support. Where re-wilding is happening on fisheries catch returns are quite low, and expectations have to be scaled-back. That doesn't suit many trout anglers, who perhaps have to drive for two or more hours to their fishing. Such fishing is very much 'fishing' rather than reliable 'catching'. I experience both propositions, and my view is that for the majority who cannot afford an expensive syndicate place, fishing is nearly, but not quite, as much fun as catching. There's more to fishing than catching fish. The same applies in Latin.
