Chalk stream Fishing

River Wylye

The River Wylye rises below the White Sheet Downs in south-west Wiltshire, then flows north through the Deverills towards Warminster before turning east south-east on the edge of the town. From then on it flows in unison with the A36, passing under the A303 at Wylye, until it joins the River Nadder on the northern outskirts of Salisbury.

The Wylye is often regarded as one of the most unspoilt chalkstreams flowing, as it does, though a still mostly agricultural landscape. It became known to a worldwide audience when featured in Edward Rutherford’s international bestseller, Sarum.


HILL DEVERILL  since 2021

 

Hill Deverill is a beautiful beat in unspoilt countryside at the head of the River Wylye, one of our most natural chalkstreams.

The Wylye is an excellent early season river, with olive hatches from the opening day in early April followed by a spectacular Hawthorn hatch later in the month and then a small hatch of Mayfly most days from May right through to July.

This beat is ideal for one Rod or two friends together. NEW Note the special rate for a two Rod bookings. It is a combination of easy wading and bank fishing, with a seating and BBQ area beside the productive Hatch Pool.

TRINITY TREES  since 2024   U16

 

Trinity Trees is in the middle part of the Wylye valley between Wylye and Warminster, off the beaten track in the village of Upton Lovell which boasts a thriving village pub.

The fishing is ideal for a single Rod, fished from the bank or by wading if you prefer. It is an open stretch with few obstructions best suited for a medium-to-light outfit. For the most part the fish are  all wild, this beat being all catch and release. However, you may come across stockies from adjoining beats and definitely some grayling.

There is good parking close to the river with a comfortable area to sit.

In addition, the owner, June Keen offers B&B at Trinity Trees, white house with red roof in photos. Email her direct for details.
