Testcombe on the River Test Testcombe is situated on the upper River Test, just downstream from the delightful village of Wherwell and was once the chosen fishing spot of iing eeorge VI. It offers a wonderful variety of water with the main river and several interesting carriers to explore for two to three anglers. The beat enjoys good numbers of brown trout and, for those looking to fish later into the autumn and winter, grayling .

Your HQ for the day is the spectacular erade II listed fishing hut which dates back to 1888. Although originally a pavilion for a tennis court built by the Disraeli family, it is now the perfect spot to immerse yourself in a day’s chalkstream fly fishing.

Throughout the season, this beautifully varied stretch of water suits all abilities, with wide main river and intimate carriers offering deep holes, overhangs and shallow glides. All of this within easy reach of London and with fantastic accommodation options nearby.

Day Rods We offer day rods throughout the trout season, from early April to late October each year. The stretch is perfect for exclusive groups of two to three anglers.

Each group will have access to three unique and interesting beats offering fishing on the main river and carriers.

Non-mayfly 2020: £275 per rod inc. VAT Mayfly 2020: £340 per rod inc. VAT
