Fly fishing: trout, salmon, sea trout and grayling on rivers, lochs and stillwaters

Fly fishing rewards those who put in the time. Reading water, matching the hatch, placing a dry fly on a chalk stream without putting down a rising trout, swinging a tube fly through a cold Norwegian pool in search of a salmon that may not come – the learning never stops, and neither does the satisfaction when it comes together.

Fieldsports Journal’s fly fishing pages cover wild brown trout on Welsh hill lakes and Scottish lochs, chalk stream fishing in Hampshire and Wiltshire, Atlantic salmon on the Tay, Tweed and Spey, sea trout after dark and grayling through the winter months. Technique, tackle, destination features and the stories that remind you why you started – written by anglers who fish the waters they write about.

The river is always worth a cast.
