Clement Booth first caught a trout from a stream near his home in South Africa in the 1960s.
He didn't have a fly rod but improvised using a fly line and old spinning rod.
It turned out to be the start of a long association with fly fishing that continued on the streams and salt water in South Africa before moving to the alpine streams of Germany and then on to the chalk streams of the UK.
We talk about the things he has learnt during this time and how fly fishing has been and continues to be such a large part of his life.
