Not trout but I was at the exact spot this was filmed today,and there was dozens,maybe more of carp crowded together in the shallow waters of the hogsmill where it empties into the thames,massive amount of carp,biggest was a guestimated 25lb.

I used to fish a tiny little river on our shoot in Sth .Yorkshire and also the River Derwent above the Derwent Valley dams using a 6foot telescopic whip from the Poundshop (don't ask how much it cost ? ) about 6 foot of 3lb mono and a small pheasant tail nymph under one of those floating strike indicators. It was just a case of flicking the fly upstream (I always fish upstream 'cos I is a gentleman) and allowing it to sink under the float as it drifted downstream. Got loads of brownies up to around 2lb. The whip closes down to about 13" so fits in a rucksack or up your sleeve and a couple of rigs can be wound onto line winders that pole fishermen use.

Did you no that if you put washing up liquid in water and splash it around to make sudds then tip it on the grass the earth worms almost immediately travel towards it and come out of the ground , don’t ask me why I don’t no but we did it in primary school and it’s always stuck in my head
