If it's anything like (or indeed the same as...) the Hywel Morgan shows that are on Horse & Country TV, they'll be well worth watching. Full of good, up to date advice about all aspects of fly fishing. Hywel is very enthusisatic and, by reputation, is a smashing bloke.

He's very enthusiastic and personally I enjoy watching his programmes. I suspect that the first ones will be re runs off Horse & Country. Even so, I will still re watch them as I learnt a fair bit. He breaks the show up into segments that include a casting class, fly tying class, hints and tips re tackle and obviously, fishing.
He loves his fishing and enjoys a pint and a laugh as well and isn't up his own a**e like some presenters.

I will second that. I enjoyed his programmes very much. I have a couple of his DVDs which are excellent as well. Perhaps more targetted at beginners but I think any fly angler should enjoy them.

Agreed... His programme fits more subject matter in than any other I've seen. He loves his fishing without being over enthusiastic (Henry Gilbey - "Oooh look, a worm....that's amazing, absolutely stunning").
Saw him on horse and country and thoroughly enjoyed the show. I'd be even more impressed if he we're to stop catching a troot on every cast
Well, it seems like that anyway.

Well I personally won't be satisfied until there's another series of 'Trout 'n About'!

Please say you're joking.
Enjoyed the Hywel Morgan programmes on Horse and Country and he's as enthusiastic in real life as in the shows.

I think you`ll find it`s the same programmes aired on Horse and Country. The AD on Sky says new to Shed,but the trailers are from the Horse and Country channel. They`re worth watching,I have them all on my Sky+box.harddrive.
