I am John Aplin founder and managing director of Casterbridge Fisheries Limited, located in Dorset close to the banks of the River Frome.

We have been involved in the various aspects of water and fishery management now for over twenty years, and our team thrives on the watery tasks that our clients present us with.

We run a professional operation backed by our on going commitment to improving and maintaining this aquatic environment in which we work, for all of us it is deemed as a way of life.

You will see when browsing this site, the commitment to the work we undertake, and at the same time the enjoyment, and the personal satisfaction we receive whether, from an engineering project or a client returning his first fly caught trout.

Time is the most precious thing we have, but it is limited, use it wisely, restore that water feature, look after your stretch of river, and use the rest of it for FISHING….
