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 Watch the 0:50 second Directors Cut of CHALK filmed on the River Avon |
