The Candover Brook is a beautiful and intimate chalk stream tributary of the world-famous River Itchen. Meandering through the picturesque Candover Valley in Hampshire, it offers highly technical and rewarding sight-fishing. Its gin-clear, often shallow waters and prolific weed beds make it a haven for pristine wild brown trout, requiring absolute stealth, light tackle, and precise dry fly presentations from the discerning angler.
