About Kimbridge Meadow Fishery
Kimbridge Meadow Fishery sits on the middle River Test in Hampshire, between Romsey and Stockbridge, on a man-made fishery created in the early 1980s, when water from the main River Test was diverted through water meadows and woodland. The fishery is split into four named carrier beats — Cottage Stream, Garden Stream, Alder Stream, and Woodland Stream — with a day ticket giving access to all four. A total of 2.17 miles of riverbank can be fished, and most of the fishing is double bank, with Cottage Stream the only single-bank beat. The fishery operates as a purist upstream dry fly venue; upstream nymphing is permitted from 1 August.
The clear water, steady flow, and high levels of dissolved minerals create a unique ecosystem that sustains an abundance of invertebrates, making sight fishing for brown trout the primary draw. The season runs from 1 May to 12 October, with a maximum of four individual rods on any day, or up to six for an exclusive group booking. Day tickets and equipment hire are available, and the fishery is well equipped with a fishing hut, riverside benches, a picnic area, a BBQ area and toilet facilities.
