iGhillie 1 - Booking Office Beat 7, The Dairy House Fishery, River Frome, Dorset

These virtual fishing guides, know as iGhillie guides, provide some invaluable insider tips to some of the beats available on our Westcountry Angling Passport scheme. Dave Chapman, Angling Development Officer at the Westcountry Rivers Trust, says, “We have created 10 short film clips with each film following a ghillie around a beat. The ghillie will discuss how best to approach the beat in question, the best techniques to use and the main areas to concentrate on. The aim is to give prospective anglers the feel for a beat and some confidence in how to get the best of the fishing available."

The beat in this video is a wild fishing chalk stream beat with a central fishing hut and circular path around the main river. It’s a great beat to fly fish with friends, the fishing hut is next to a pretty bridge pool with plenty of room to relax and enjoy lunch. The beat makes up around 1300m of challenging fly fishing comprising main river and a section of feeder stream. These combine for great sight fishing in the crystal clear water. This fishing is for totally wild fish and has never been stocked. You’ll enjoy exciting and challenging fishing on this beat, a haven of perfect chalk stream conditions surrounded by stunning scenery.
