Peer into the secret, silent world of freshwater fish and explore the evolution of fishing in Britain. From Neolithic traps, Roman nets and quarrelsome Victorian societies to the development of angling and eventual gentrification of river access, this history spans thousands of years and ends with a poignant call to protect the underwater world from the horrors of industrial fishing and farming. Meanwhile, discover the lives of the fishes themselves: the Atlantic salmon, eel, pike, carp, spotted brown trout and its silver cousin, the grayling.
