Welcome to the English chalkstreams


As the trout season draws to a close there are two competing schools of fishing: hang up your waders content with memories of a season well spent and plan for the season to come. Or keep the faith for a while with grayling as your chosen quarry. We can help you with both. For the grayling I have sixteen beats across ten rivers in six counties. For next year bookings are open for fishing cottages, corporate events, courses, schools, kids camps and gift vouchers. For everything else ping me an email with your 2025 requirements or watch this space.

Our chalkstreams range from the famous rivers Test and Itchen in Hampshire across the counties of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Dorset and Wiltshire in the south and then to Yorkshire in the north, plus the limestone rivers of Co. Durham, Derbyshire, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and the Lake District.

Every river (we have over twenty) is very special in its own right and you will find a description, photos, location map, video and prices for each, plus my unique Tranquillity and Difficulty rating. Look out for the beats that have my Exclusive to Fishing Breaks tag, which are only available through us.

Here at Nether Wallop Mill, in the heart of Hampshire, I host our Private Tuition & Courses plus Children and Family Days from April to October. Everyone is welcome and with a beautiful thatched cabin overlooking a crystal clear, well stocked lake with five varieties of trout: blue, brown, golden, rainbow and tiger. This has to be the most wonderful place to catch your first ever fish.

There are various ways to book: the on-line system shows up-to-the minute availability. Alternatively do give me a call or drop me an email as I am always happy to discuss the options if you are undecided.

Finally, if you are browsing the site with a birthday, anniversary or special occasion in mind, I’d point you in the direction of our gift vouchers. I have set a standard that few match in terms of breadth of choice, ease of use and a ground-breaking two years in which to use them.

I hope a great fishing trip is about to begin.

Best wishes!

Simon Cooper
