Brian Herbert Joined us to talk about the chalk stream crisis

Brian is the club secretary of Frensham Fly Fishers.

Frensham Fly Fishers has access to approximately five miles of bank of the River Wey around Frensham and Tilford which we fish between April and September.

We are a relaxed and friendly club that is run by its members and as such we undertake caretaking duties ourselves such as stocking the river with brown and rainbow trout and occasional bank clearing parties.

Frensham Fly Fishers was founded in 1957 - since its inception we have considered ourselves as guardians of our river environment. We are actively involved with the Anglers Riverfly Monitoring Initiative (ARMI) and carry out regular invertebrate monitoring along all our beats - you can find out more about this in our Fly Life section
