Chalk stream Fishing
River Avon
Rising on the Wiltshire/Berkshire border, the River
Avon flows southward for over 40 miles until it reaches the sea at Christchurch.
The lower sections are famous for salmon, including the legendary Royalty
Bridge pool.
However, for trout fishermen the pick of the beats are upstream
of Salisbury, especially over Salisbury Plain where Frank Sawyer, inventor
of the Pheasant Tail Nymph, lived and keepered all his life.
AVON SPRINGS  
|
|
This lovely stretch of the River Avon is
renowned for good brown trout and grayling. Immaculately cared
for by the owners it has a high proportion of wild fish, plus
fish reared on site that were the progeny of the original
Avon native fish.
There is an abundance of insect life providing a varied food
source with fly hatches that include mayfly, damselfly, sedge
and many others. The ‘dry fly only’ rule is in
force until June 1st after which traditional nymphs may be
used.
The beat is shared by up to four rods. There is the option
of the sporting ticket that allows you to swap between the
lakes and river at will.

UPAVON FARM 
|
|
Upavon Farm is in the heart of that part of
the Avon valley that Frank Sawyer, river keeper extraordinaire
and inventor of the Pheasant Tail Nymph, made his own.
This all wading beat is the perfect place to follow in his
footsteps where sight fishing, with both dry and nymph, is
the only way to go. Never stocked, this is an all wild trout
fishery that holds a good head of grayling as well.
Upavon is ideal for one person or two friends sharing
