Show Notes

Join me as I walk the water of the Upper Teign Fishing Association in Devon with committee members Stuart Medford and Harry Chance.

I learn about what the river means to them, how they fish it, the importance of terrestrial flies on this water and the history of the club.

We discuss the issues many fishing clubs have right now and how they are trying to maintain memberships.

I was amazed to learn that the club has 12km of lightly fished trout water  (£95 for the year) along with sea trout and the chance of salmon too.

This was a chance for me to shout about clubs like this one that need membership income to survive and if we aren't able to support them we could be in danger of losing them which I can't stand by and let happen.

If you have a fishing club you'd like me to highlight please contact me and I'll do everything I can to help.
