I am thinking of doing a bit of Roach fishing on the Thames this winter, anywhere from Richmond up to Cookham. Apart from the free stretches up to Staines is there water that access is available on a day ticket?
Many thanks
Stu
Hi stu,
I'm only literally up the rd from you in Northfleet, all of me fishing is predominantly fishing for quality roach and dace which I've now specialised in for a good number of years,
The majority of me fishing is on the Thames from Staines to Putney which is some 28 miles of free fishing, I have obviously fished further upstream upto Buscot but you'll most likely find that most stretches of water will then be club waters,
I don't really know of any particular day ticket section but did fish a few seasons back up around the Reading area on the RDAA ( Reading and district anglers association )
Don't know the exact price now but I could surgest in purchasing a Thames weir pool permit for the sake of probably under £30.00 per season
With this you get the opportunity to fish I think around 18 Thames weir pools and locks from Mosley, Hampton court all the way to I think Buscot in Oxfordshire,
Just a thought
Incidentally if you wanna know more send me a PM :thumbs:
