As we continue to endure another national lock down in the UK and bide our time for better fishing conditions, we find ourselves turning in our droves to social media platforms to scratch the fishing itch.

Here we have outlined our top 5 favourite, most entertaining, eye pleasing or educational channels for your consumption - enjoy.

In no particular order:
