Today, we sit down with UK fly fishing legend Peter Cockwill for a wide-ranging chat on small stillwaters, chalk streams, and the decades-long friendship with our friend Jim Teeny. Peter shares his origin story insights into stocking trout with simple flies and why you shouldn't overlook that shallow downwind bank when fish and still waters. We've even got a backcountry story. This one is jam-packed with wisdom, humor, and lots of old stories.

Peter Cockwill returns with more insight from the stillwater side of the fly fishing world. We dive into fishing clearwater with minimal flies, using the wind to your advantage, and how to fish without a boat on stillwaters.
