Episode 333 - Amwell Magna and the River Lea

What only feels like yesterday but was a number of years ago now, I was a member of Amwell Magna Fishing Club based on the River Lea in Hertfordshire.

I made the long drive and was lucky enough to catch the mayfly hatch.

I speak with members about what has changed since I last fished there and catch a few fish too.

Feargal Sharkey was there and tells me what anglers can do to protect their waterways, we had lunch provided by Michelin Starred chef, Chris Galvin and I also hear about the Scotch Egg origins from pastry maestro Roger Pizey from Fortnum and Mason.

We caught fish but the day was about much more than that and captures a little of what fly fishing means to all of us.
