Just been informed from a club member of the lakes that apps court has become a Club membership Fishery on the lakes fairly recently but there may be a chance of day ticket access to the lakes if you're Camping/Living on site from the Fishery manager Freddie. Thanks Uncal Bert for the input..😁👍
Brilliant how nice a genuine fisherman sharing his secrets far far from them carp boys refreshing tight lines keep catching
Thanks so much for that it's really appreciated, lovely comment my friend..😁
I'm gonna be posting all my fishing & camping spots in detail when the world and weather play ball.
From the tidal Thames to Leyham and back the other side and all free with excellent access plus my River Wye secrets.
Meanwhile I'm filling time posting gaming plus Drone & Rc Simulator vids for fun..🤪
Thanks again & tight lines to you..!! 😁😁👍
We need more friendly people like you! Another awesome video buddy! 🎣👌
Thank you for the compliment bud, i do try my best to be friendly. It can be difficult filming on the Thames sometimes, alsorts of, let's say, "Characters"..🤣 Can't wait to get fishing in the places I've filmed on the Thames from the Bellyboat, it's gonna be quite different to the Deep Sea Lighthouse Fishing & Harbour fishing I've been doing lately.. Bring it on i say..☺️👍Cheers bud your a Star..😊👏👏
As a kid I used to fish on the island and wade out to the middle of weir. Caught my first double figure carp there on a match rod and 3lb line! Took me an age to get it in the net. Me holding that fish is one of my most treasured childhood pics. But that island is a spooky place I can tell you. Never braved it alone. I returned recently and found the bridge locked. I wondered why. Then I found out that a murder of a fisherman had taken place there. Rather upset me.
Hi buddy, i heard about that a couple of years ago and it made me think as well. Such a shame about the Braindead few mucking it up for the many..👎Glad there's still plenty of lovely people around if you know where to look.. Should be filming & fishing around there in the next couple of weeks. Fingers crossed🤞Thanks for the comment..😊👍
@@MUCKER671 I’ve live in Brighton now and have done since I was 20. I’m 60 now. But when I go back to the area and particularly the Thames Bankside’s, the boyhood memories come flooding back. Your vids help me remember too.
One disappointment was revisiting Broadwater lake. As a kid I hauled many an early morning tench to 4.5 lb out of there. No point staying past 10am as it would always die. I also once sat watched, and learned as a guy hauled out bream after bream using bread and float lift method .
But when I returned a couple of years ago it looked dead…almost toxic. Whatever happened to it?
It's so sad when you experience things like that, my closest river is the same in places, water extraction, Nitrates and fishing clubs with good intentions but bad ideas.. You would think that the government would help the EA out with more financial support as fishing is still the largest participated sport in the UK and all over the world.
So many different problems.. On a lighter note, it makes my day when i here my vids help lovely people like yourself reminisce about the past, I get quite a lot of messages like that which makes everything I do with the free fishing vids much easier. It costs me a packet just to get to the Thames let alone camp etc but i wouldn't change it for the world.. P.s i absolutely love Brighton, great people food & shopping..😊 I take my much better half on her Birthday sometimes and stay in the Hotel in the Marina. Glad you enjoyed the vid and plenty more coming soon. Camping & filming myself fishing the free spots from my Bellyboat on the Thames this Monday for 10 days. It's gonna be a Money where me mouth is moment.. Lovely Jubbly..😊👍🎣
Thanks for the info.... It was so detailed and useful for.... Me and the rest of the family and the dogs... Happy Days 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Love this vid, grew up in Sunbury and have fished many of these spots on & off for 30 + years! nice work :)
Thanks for the nice comment😁👍I can't believe how few Fishermen there are here. Hoping to do all mine & probably some favourites off yours all with easy access from Eal Pie to Leyham/Chertsey in the near future. Thanks again😁👍👍
Most anglers don't want to put the effort in getting to those swims! Most will hit the Kings lawn or the island opposite Apps court, I've had many double figured barbel the Apps court side including my biggest Chubb which when to 7lb 2oz. Totally underated stretch of water. 👍👍👍
I’ve walked all the way from Hampton court to those swims and a few others countless times and had lots of good results with big carp and barbel. Not so productive last couple of seasons though. It’s my belief the barbel stay more in the kings lawn area where the all bait goes in.
@@elliottlock9555 agree totally, i would pre-bait heavily but you just get Breamed out, and i need my Beautiful Sleep badly..! 😁 😁 Thanks for the comment. 👍🎣🎣
MUCKER671 I give kings lawn a miss 👍 lol tight lines mate
If you carry on about another mile you will find 3 big concrete blocks with an island opposite , fish to the island I have caught many carp to 30 lb. Great video
Thanks very much for your advice and nice comment it's greatly appreciated bud..😊 👍
Glad I'm not the only one who's met your nemesis. Trashed twice by it on deadbaits on very heavy gear.
Crazy big whatever they are..! Cat's i recon.? Gonna target them in June and winkle one out if at all possible.. If you can call monster hunting Winkling..??🤔🤔 Thanks for your interest it's really appreciated my friend..😁😁👍
@@MUCKER671 let me know how you get on or better still when you go. It bit through 28 lb trace twice so I'm baffled how it did that. 87lb braid mainline so it should have stayed on or pulled me in
@@richardbentley6781 it's wierd isn't it..? I'm thinking of free lining for it next time to try to get it off the bottom a bit quicker. It's never been close to breaking the surface for me.. Thinking 15lb Fluorocarbon & some really heavy shot leader as a trace 60lb should do it. Gonna Treat it like a Smooth Hound of the beach..😁😁 All being well I'll keep you posted on it. Should be end of June or beginning of July hopefully..! 😁👍🎣
@@MUCKER671 I should have said the 28 lb trace was wire. How on earth did it bite through it so easily. Twice aswell. Cats have pads not teeth. It was amazingly fast aswell
@@richardbentley6781 very odd isn't it, to bite through wire trace like that as well. I recon the famous phrase going to need a bigger boat may be appropriate for this..! 🤣 If you ever find out what it is please message me. 😁👍
Only just come across this video, absolutely brilliant. I've fished at East Mosely, Chertsey and Laleham but the last time I went I got plagued by mitten crab and not been back for about three seasons. I'll definitely try this stretch and I've subscribed, I'll check out your other videos. Well done👌👌
Thank you very much for your message it's really appreciated. I Love the Thames..!
I'm gonna be posting all my favourite swims with free & easy access from the tidal Eel Pie to Leyham and back down the other side Weather & Covid depending this year.
Quick tip for the crab situation, there not so bad lately plus I've found that Trout pellet boilies coverd in fishy paste keeps them at bay, recon it must blend in with the free offerings of pellets so harder to find for the Blighters.
Ps thanks very much for the sub & hit the notifications Bell for latest updates. Just to let you know I do post lots of other stuff on Simulators & games so you'll probably get pings from my channel a lot, just ignore those if you like my friend..! Tight lines..!! 🎣🎣😁👍
@@MUCKER671 interesting, never used pellets, thought they would be a bream magnet, will try them next time I go, just sent the vid to my mate I usually go with. Thanks for the reply. Is a beautiful river
@@clivelogsdon1492 trout pellet boilies on the hook is the key.. 😁👍
Unfortunately a lot of gypsy boats have taken most of the best swims down there now, I used to love fishing down there but too many wrongens about now its such a shame...
Agreed bud, it can be difficult & frustrating sometimes. The Thames has gone down hill in the last 15yrs or so.
Too many drunken litter bugs in certain places.
I've been physically threatened & verbally abused 3 times in just one afternoon of filming around the Walton Bridge area. Most people are nice but there's always some that spoil it for the rest of us..
Luckily I'm not the sort of bloke to be pushed by these people.. (i push back)..
The Environment Agency seems to be scared of the people I'm talking about, the blatant abuse of the laws around fishing on the Thames is unbelievable..!!
Thanks so much for your comment it's really appreciated bud..👍
P.s sorry about the Rant but it's been building up for years..😊👍🎣🐟
that's a real shame to hear
Yeah, it should be fun not a case of having to look over your shoulder wondering when the next "EPISODE" will happen. I can only think of one other word that isn't rude for these people "Urchins"
I've been making a note of all the different confrontations I've had around the Thames area over the years, and it's from just one section of society, but we're not allowed to talk about that apparently..!!🥴🥴
Every "EPISODE" I've had the pleasure of dealing with is Alcohol and Drug related..
Just wish the Council's, Police and Environment Agency would grow a set and deal with the problem.
Dam it, I'm ranting again⚠️😱 Lol..🤣
Thanks for your comment bud, it's most appreciated, as always..😊👍
Im a member at apps court lakes its a club that used to be day ticket but recently switched over to memberships.
That you for the update its appreciated..👍I'll try to pin the new info at the top of the messages for people to see. Tight lines..! 😁👍🎣
@@MUCKER671 If you are camping over there im pretty sure freddie the fishery manager will do you a day ticket but only if you are camping/living on the site.
Just updated the info on the day tickets. Thanks again.. 😁👍
Another great watch ! not sure how I missed this lol, ive walked up to here from Hurst Green and wondered what the fishing was like here, are there any slipways I can use here for a 3m inflatable ?
Hı buddy, sorry no Slipway on the AppsCourt side I'm afraid, there is one on the opposite side at the end of Thamesmead Island.
If i remember correctly you may have already seen my vid on it, but here's some info for you just incase..😊
The closest address i can come up with on Google Maps for you is here.
Sunbury Ct, Sunbury-on-Thames TW16
Small car park with a small wonky slipway plus free trailer parking.
It's perfect if you can launch without using the trailer.
Great access to Sunbury Lock and Wier..!
Hope this helps you my friend..😊👍Tight Lines
@@MUCKER671 Brilliant thanks
Me again!😂 if not using the campsite where is the nearest carpark?
I think you can pay for parking at AppsCourt & park by the access gate to the river in the vid in dry weather. Gate code needed (Best check first though). Access is bad on AppsCourt side. Turn right out of Apps for the closest, there's a lovely long downstream stretch at Shepperton Wier (vid PT11). Just upstream of AppsCourt on the opposite bank is Kingslawn off Thames Street Pt4, Old Bathing Station Car Park off Fordingbridge Rd (PT5) also Thames Street Car Park directly opposite Apps fishing from Rivermead Island, decent walk though. Last ones at the end of Rivermead Island called Rivermead Car Park, small but quicker access if shallow anough to Rivermead Island (Boots/Waiders required) (Vid PT5) I call it Thamesmead Island for some reason in the vid.🤔
Can't think of any other available access close to the AppsCourt side I'm afraid but I hope this helps you in some way bud..😊👍 Even i got confused writing this message. Lol..🥴😂
@MUCKER671 Thanks, may give the bit a miss then. Going to have a day in the summer having a good look around ready for the new season. The "Tooth" on Walton Lane is my no.1 choice atm also thames st at Sunbury.
The Tooth's a very good first choice I recon bud. Lots of different species, great area for Trotting, Drop Shotting & Feeder Fishing, well worth taking a set of Waiders. Good luck on ya trevels in the summer..😊👍
Have you ever fished near Chertsey bridge any info would be great
Hi, definitely one of my favourite spots for barbel and Silvers. If you cross Chertsey Bridge heading East Northeast there's a small car park just over the bridge on the right. Walk upstream across the road towards the lock. There's a grass bank that you can fish from, i would suggest casting a fishy Boilie & hard fishy paste covering bait hook & weight about 10mtr upstream of the second arch of the bridge for Barbel.
Silver fishing downstream of the bridge either side of the first left hand bend with maggot feeder & really long hook lengths, 4-6ft sometimes. Both are very short walks to the swims. Hope this helps bud..!😊👍
I'll be posting a vid on that section in the next few weeks hopefully..!
@@MUCKER671 that's amazing thanks very much.how about other way from Chertsey bridge towards dumsey meadow..thanks
@@alanbathasmith4454 only fished from a boat down that far, good Silvers again all along that stretch, i fish fairly close to the opposite bank, I'd definitely stick to the first bend for the Carp if you want to fish that area, much less flow & even Lily pads in the summer sometimes. Good feeder & waggler fishing too.. 😊👍
@@MUCKER671 that's great thanks again
All the best
@@alanbathasmith4454 pleasure and good luck 🐟🎣
