About Arrow Kington

Arrow Kington is a mile and a half of double bank on the upper River Arrow, just upstream of Kington. It is a small upland stream running through farmland, a good place for wild brown trout, and wading is relatively easy over the gravel and silt bed. The Passport suggests a rod of six and a half to seven and a half feet rated 2 to 4 weight.
