River Spey, Scotland
Catch an Atlantic Salmon in one of the most famous rivers in Scotland. It's also close to some fantastic distilleries for a tipple at the end of the day, plus wonderful scenery. Even better, no license is required.

River Wye, Wales
Get a sea trout and salmon licence to enjoy the fifth biggest river in the UK. It's great for fly and coarse anglers alike. Look out for large populations of barbel, trout and salmon.
-
River Test, Hampshire
This is arguably the world's most famous river for fly fishing, and grayling and brown trout are in abundance in the managed rivers. Manicured banks make it perfect for beginners and the less mobile too.

Lough Corrib, Connemara, Ireland
Visit this famous spot in May for red Corrib Trout and enjoy the festival atmosphere as the fishermen flood in to try their luck with fly fishing. Just book your accommodation in advance as it gets very busy.
-
River Moyola, Northern Ireland
You won't believe that you're just 40 minutes away from Belfast at this beautiful rural location, with the Sperrin mountains rolling in the background. Look out for local dollaghan and brown trout and enjoy the fantastic local pubs and cafes for hearty fare.
-
River Wye, Monsal Head, Derbyshire
Monsal Head is a wonderfully atmospheric spot to fish, with wonderful views around the gorge. When the valley begins to darken, fishing fans emerge from the winding uphill path for a welcome pint at the Monsal Head Hotel.
-
River Teifi, Wales
There was a time when the Welsh rivers were black with pollution. Not anymore. Head to the River Teifi to catch sea trout in the dead of night and soak up the mystical atmosphere as you do.
