The finest Chalkstream Fly Fishing 

Chalk stream dry fly fishing represents the pinnacle of the sport, offering an unparalleled experience for enthusiasts. These streams, with only 210 genuine examples worldwide and 160 located in the UK, are a rare and sought-after fishing locale. Glorious Game provides exclusive access to some of the finest chalk streams in southern England, renowned for their pristine conditions.

The distinctive characteristic of these streams is their resilience against flooding and drying out. The chalk substrate acts as a natural sponge during heavy rains, absorbing water and then filtering it through its layers before releasing it via springs. This process ensures a stable environment for native trout, preserving both their habitat and food sources. The stability of chalk streams makes them an ideal fishing destination, as they remain accessible to anglers regardless of the weather.

Situated in the celebrated Test Valley, Glorious Game is at the epicentre of the world's most prestigious fly fishing region. Our connections allow us to offer some of the most thrilling and exclusive fishing experiences available, catering to anglers of every skill level, from novices to seasoned veterans.

Fishing in Hampshire's chalk streams is not merely about the sport; it's an immersion into the history of fly fishing itself. Anglers here follow in the wake of the sport's pioneers, such as Skues, Sawyer, and Halford, who honed their techniques and contributed to the development of modern fly fishing in these very waters. This heritage, combined with the exceptional clarity of the water, the abundance of large brown trout, vibrant fly life, and breathtaking scenery, makes for an unmatched fishing adventure.
