There are 2 beats Upper and Lower which rotate each week. As well as salmon, the upper beat produces large brown trout and there is a strong run of sea trout and a good head of large grayling.

Probably the cheapest salmon fishing to be found. Early season the fishing can be along traditional lines due to absence of weed whilst later the tactics include the induced take using nymph with sink & draw technique. 2021 & 2022 saw several good salmon landed up to 20lbs.

The Salterton Fishery lies between Lower and Middle Woodford in the Woodford Valley. The river is varied with deeper water to be found in the stretches at the top and at the bottom of the fishery. Where an island has formed the river is shallower with some flow diverted to the lively stream of Ham Carrier.

Plenty of different waters on this scenic and private fishery. Some like to wade the bottom stretch though its not necessary. The fishery is improving every year with stocked and wild fish flourishing as well as pike, chub, dace, roach and grayling who will all rise to the fly. The keeper, Lee, has continued working on the river which has gone through somewhat of a renaissance with improved catches in 2025.

This is a little gem, part of Hungerford Town and Manor fishery, gifted to the townsfolk by John of Gaunt. All the other fishing is let to syndicate members and the waiting list is huge. You have exclusive use of the Hungerford Marsh stretch for your day and our booking is for two rods so you can bring a guest. The beat extends for 950 metres of the River Dun. Despite being only a short walk from the town, this is a very private and intimate section of river with its own fishing hut. It's crystal clear, creepy, crawly fishing where stealth will be the key.

Good head of fish though easily spooked hence subtle river craft needed - keep low by the water, few false casts trying to make each cast count. Wading permitted only if it is necessary to enter the water to better cover a fish. Exit water at point of entry and do not wade up river.

The Itchen Carrier at Easton is an exceptionally rare stretch of gin-clear chalk stream that leads into the main river. In places the fishing presents a technical challenge for even the most experienced fly fisherman, but The Carrier is also suitable for those under the instruction of a guide, or any enthusiasts that simply enjoy time by the river. Booking is for two rods.

Small wild trout which are skittish. Bank very uneven due to escaped cattle. Requires wading and is quite enclosed in places

We have two rods on 4 trout beats each being different giving a good variety with white water pools, faster riffled stretches and deep pools, providing excellent sport. Regular stocking is carried out using only the highest quality brown trout ranging up to 5lbs.Four well stocked rotating trout beats near the bottom of the Itchen quite close to the sea.

It is a secluded and very pretty fishery (keep following the track) and we want to encourage more of you to visit what we see as the most delightful fishery, also second equal in our catch returns with an average of just under 5 fish a day last season. Both banks are fishable on the majority of the water.

The Kennet is one of the most beautiful of chalk streams, rising in the Marlborough Downs being a Site of Special Scientific Interest, one of few in "improving condition" throughout its length and is a haven for wildlife. Avington lies at the confluence of the Rivers Dunn and Kennet downstream from Hungerford. It boasts a thriving population of wild trout and the fishery is lightly and delicately stocked with young brown trout to help maintain the population. The beats at Avington extend to some 6 miles of largely single bank fishing, serving a mix of small technical carriers and main river which can cater for all abilities. There is a great variety of fishing to suit all levels of experience throughout the season including what is most often a spectacular mayfly hatch.

Delightful stretches of river and carrier. Well stocked with fish who can be skittish if you approach too close or loom over the water. Take it slow, study the water and try and spot your fish so you can cast appropriately. We are very privileged to have access to this water not being syndicate members and we would implore fishers to keep a low profile, preferably not using the fishing hut.

The Benham Estate has by some considerable margin more chalkstream fishing that any other estate in the whole of Berkshire. The Park is a delightful mix of fishing with the larger main river, criss-crossed by a variety of carriers and side streams which all add up to something in the region of five miles of water. The fishing is mostly from the bank, though on occasion you may be able to wade some of the small stream sections. There is an excellent head of wild fish supplemented by with regular stocking.

The full-time river keeper Gary Allen will usually be on hand to greet you and there is a fishing cabin beside the river with parking immediately adjacent. For 2026 we are fishing alternate Fridays and Mondays.

A well stocked and manicured stretch with rotating beats on the Duke of Wellington's estate at Stratfield Saye.

This was a new fishery for LFS in 2022 that has been both popular and productive. The Loddon (a tributary of the Thames) has an indigenous head of coarse fish (not grayling) and wild brown trout and the fishery stocks with both rainbow and brown trout.

Trout fishing on the River Test at Broadlands runs from the Inigo Bridge marking the bottom limit of the private beats downstream to the boundary with the Nursling Fishery at the M27. This fishing is divided into five beats each in excess of three quarters of a mile, for up to 2 rods per beat. All beats are divided by a bridge across the river except between Longbridge and Moorcourt where there is a sign on the bank downstream of the Longbridge hut.

The Test here is a very large river and much more challenging than the middle/upper beats of the river. The fish tend to hug the banks and are more reliably caught at dusk.

Chilbolton Fishing is in a private, secluded 280 metres of the main river Test situated adjacent to Chilbolton Cow Common. The beat has two islands, a comfortable rustic fishing hut and numerous seats and jetties. The picturesque hut has tables and chairs which members are welcome to use along with the provided BBQ.

This is a family-owned fishery and not run as a commercial enterprise. The ethos is to enjoy your day on the River Test, relaxing in a beautiful natural setting with the knowledge that when you book you have the whole place to yourself. Please note that we have only the true left bank to fish from so there may be another fisherman opposite. Please be courteous, respectful to and cooperative with other fishermen. Last season there was some issues with bank access and these have now been resolved. In its first season for us Chilbolton has surged into the top 5 fisheries for catches.

Fullerton Fishing is a private, secluded, single rod Upper Test stretch of the main river situated across a field adjacent to the Fullerton Road between the Mayfly and Wherwell. A prime spot for experienced fly fishers seeking a classic chalk stream experience, with excellent trout populations, diverse water features like deep pools, glides, and weed beds, which can be challenging due to the need for precise casting with the potential for large fish and the picturesque scenery along the riverbank.

We have doubled our days on this prolific fishery (second equal for catches in 2025) now having a day each week there.

Trout fishing available on the river Test for 2 rods on alternate Thursdays. The Estate has two beats on the River Test just upstream of the village of Houghton. The more open and easier water of the two. Seth the Waterkeeper will be around from time to time to offer advice and encouragement. A short water holding plenty of large fish. All right bank.

This fishery continues a great success. The Lower beat has one of the best pools on the entire river being responsible for biggest fish of the season from Society waters in every year. Seth, the River Keeper, is usually about to give a hand in his relaxed, no-nonsense manner and certainly helped several members to score. Those on the WhatsApp group will have enjoyed Seth's many videos on and about the river in 2021 and 2022. A very grand fishing hut has now been completed.

Trout fishing available on the river Test for 3 rods on alternating Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Estate has two beats on the River Test just upstream of the village of Houghton.

A stretch for hunting fish. All right bank so suits the right hander. Runs, deep pools and riffles - go slow and watch the water. Seth does many video updates on the WhatsApp. The Upper beat is more challenging and offers some of the best priced prime Test fishing available.

Prime Test fishing in abundance on the Waitrose and Partners Farm. The Leckford estate has 16 beats on 11 miles of water. Beats rotate.

This is high quality fishing, stocked with quality fish and no 1 in our catch returns with an average of just under 4 fish a day. Some days are for two rods sharing a beat and some are for just one rod which can be shared (only one rod to be in use at any one time), this is a great way to introduce someone to the joys of fly fishing!

600 yards of main river, wide with variable depths and large fish. Outside mayfly, the evenings, especially at dusk, are the best times. A three rod beat renowned for monster trout, with interesting Island feature at the bottom.

Left bank only which is mostly open so presenting little trouble for the back cast. Stocked with fish up to 4lbs. Track up the river bank can get waterlogged so fishermen may have to leave car by the gate and walk to the hut. This much-loved prime beat continues to be a regular producer of big fish. The estate has agreed to undertake some river improvement works to both banks to improve the natural environment. This has included reintroducing a meander to the river, with the introduction of a berm near the cuckoo clump trees. There will also be some additional planting. All this should improve the insect life and fish habitat. This will not affect the fishing though will some of the bank will remain soft until the summer grass and wild flowers grow back (see Fishery info for more detail).

The Park Stream is the mill stream to the historic Horsebridge Mill. This pretty beat flows from the famous Houghton Club water on the river Test and was recently purchased by Bossington Estate. Bank of over 300 yards with both trout and a good head of grayling. Fishing for 1, or 2 friends fishing together.

Carrier: Right bank only. Fishers can wade the bottom stretch below the hut, thereafter too deep.

Trout fishing available on the lower reaches of the river Test for 3 rods on alternating Thursdays. The beats often produce very large trout that run downstream towards the estuary. This also offers an excellent opportunity to combine a day of trout fishing at Nursling with night fishing at Testwood for sea trout.

Specialist sea trout fishing at night. No lights on the water and great care needed Recommend arriving whilst still light to study how and where to fish and land them. Not recommended for novices. It is difficult fishing in the pitch dark but produces big seatrout consistently - the fishery is reliant on catch and release which will not unduly concern LFS members who for the main part practise this already. There is accommodation and breakfast available. Good catches in 2025 included seatrout, seabass, chub and bream!
