After what has been the hottest UK summer on record, the cooler days of autumn bring a landscape bathed in changing colours, and the promise of river levels returning to normal with the much-needed rain.
Despite the rain, prolific hatches still occur well into the evening, providing excellent dry fly opportunities as hungry trout gorge themselves before the onset of winter.
For a taste of autumn fishing on the River Test from our YouTube channel, check out the video below.
It is possible to secure your preferred autumn dates whether a single angler or group now. So do not hesitate to contact us for details on availability.
