River Itchen, Hampshire - Wild Brown Trout

Paul and Bob travel to Hampshire to fly fish in the idyllic River Itchen with their trusty canine friend Ted in tow.

Paul takes Bob to one of his favourite rivers to fly fish – the beautiful chalk stream of the River Itchen in Hampshire. As it's Paul's birthday week, he gets to call all the shots, but the only present he really wants is to catch a wild brown trout in this idyllic location.

Later, Paul catches up with an old friend, actor and fellow angler James Murray, who is campaigning to save the precious salmon which are fast declining in our chalk streams, both on the Itchen and the neighbouring River Test.
