An increase in trout and salmon populations in Manx rivers means plenty of opportunities for river anglers.

Minister for Environment, Food and Agriculture Geoffrey Boot says anglers are still encouraged to release the fish they catch to help conserve stocks.
Mr Boot explains why the rise in fish numbers is important to the Island:
