Alex Thrift talks to me about his love of fly fishing and the importance of simplicity in the sport.

He shares his experiences fishing in Wales and North Sweden, as well as his favourite rivers, including the Usk and the Monnow.

Alex also talks about the significance of fishing friends and how they have influenced his journey as a fly fisherman.

He emphasises the joy of using and enjoying fishing gear, rather than keeping it in pristine condition.

We also talk about the current state of the fly fishing landscape, the power of social media in connecting fly fishers globally, the art of writing about fly fishing and dream fishing destinations.

The walk was a long one but worth it to get to a special little stream.

I've a new cap, some dry flies and a rod I'm looking forward to christening.

I'm joined by my friend Warren and as ever, we talk fishing and so much more.

He also tells me about his new fly fishing venture that involves building great value glass rods and refurbishing old cane rods so that they can be used back out on the water again.

Was the long walk worth it? Tune in and find out!

I'm joined by Richard Tong to talk about his approach to targeting large trout on dry flies.

The conversation turns out to be more than this as we look at his fly fishing career, talk tackle and the mental approach to making a cast to a fish.

We also talk about the loss of a fish and fishing in New Zealand too.

I describe Richard as a thinking angler in the introduction and you'll see why when you tune in!
