    Fished today at Duncton Mill fisheries under the new ownership of Dan. Situated in the South Downs, West Sussex, the fishery is natural, but very well kept. Quiet, tranquil and great fighting trout at the most reasonable price in The south, which included the most beautiful brown trout I’ve seen. Dan the owner is a great host, very knowledgeable and has big plans, I would encourage you to use him and help him achieve them. Great place, great value, great set up.
