Chalk streams

Bård and Lars finally get to go to the cradle of fly fishing: They gin clear chalk streams in Hampshire in southern England. Having underestimated the importance of tradition and customs among the upper class, they start out elegantly with tweed and sixpence. And after a visit to the local pub, Lars gets more fish than ever before. When Lars in addition catches a new world record rainbow trout, Bård begins to itch under the Tweed and his tongue starts tangling when he meets his idol, the footballer Eirik Bakke.

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
