Experts in enhancing rivers and empowering others to do the same. By improving river habitat for wild brown trout, we protect all kinds of freshwater wildlife. Our charity is active across the UK and Ireland 🐟 www.wildtrout.org
When we enhance river habitat, we're always looking ahead to future conditions. Like many rivers, the upper tributaries of the Aire were noticeably low this year. But when autumn rain arrives, we can see the value of reconnecting the rivers to their floodplains - as demonstrated by our Jonny Grey 💧

Our Director, Shaun Leonard, joined the hosts of the CountrySlide podcast for a natter about trout. Together, they explore the pressures on our rivers, the impact of community advocates, and the challenges of championing wildlife that is often hidden from view: www.wildtrout.org/news/wild-tr...

We had a spotty surprise on a recent visit to Wensleydale in North Yorkshire. While some of the local rivers have dry periods, we wouldn't usually expect to see one without water in the autumn time. Here, Jonny Grey encounters a very tenacious fish 🐟
