This sort of information is priceless for someone like me who is planning to return to river fishing after 40 years plus! Thanks very much for this and your other videos.
Pleasure buddy, I'll be doing loads more in the future, hope you catch..😊👍
I've just started fishing again after 15 years and I want to do this summer on the upper Thames, caught all my biggest fish on the Thames but times change and these videos are priceless
Thank you very much for your comment it's really appreciated bud..😊 Makes me want to do more..💥👍
Great video, thanks for your time.
Pleasure buddy and I'm glad you liked it and thank you for watching..😊👍🎣🐟
Interesting video , I’ll need to watch again as the dam phone rang as you were showing the blue badge parking , so I more or less missed it , looks very Roachy , from what I saw , I’ll check the vid out again in a bit , cheers Mucker 👍🏻
Typical timing with the phone. Lol..🥴
Pleasure bud, definitely Roach, waggler at long range from this bank, id walk down stream to just past the Marina that's highlighted in the video if you can..
Good luck..🤞😊
Great vid again MUCKER. Lovely area, thank you..
Pleasure..
This is information I've been looking for on the Thames. Cheers.
Absolute pleasure bud..😊
I've nearly thirty vids on that sort of thing know and more free fishing soon..👍
I've just finished gluing on all the patches and rod rests for my new Belly Boat which I'll be showcasing very soon on some of my favourite free fishing stretches of the Thames. (I've made some short review vids on that)
Im christening the boat tomorrow with some bass and mullet fishing in my local Marina.
Good to see you again bud and Tight Lines..😊🐟🎣
Great video again
Thanks very much for your nice comment again, it's much appreciated bud..😊👍
I've been there in the area probably 20 times, not much luck. Don't understand why. Maybe the current is too strong. You get perch but not many pikes. And with so many boats it's even worse. Thanks for showing the spots though, not many do that, like they think someone's gonna steal the water or something.
Hi, thanks very much for your comment it's really appreciated..👍 Have you fished this area at this time of year.? The only reason why I ask is because the Roach tend to shoal up in large groups in the slacker water around the first left hand bend downstream of the bridge, they tend to attract the Pike. Laleham just upstream can work this time of the year as well.. Not sure if you've tried this technique before, i call it twitching or the lift and draw method. I use a single hook placed through the top and bottom lip of a dead Roach with two to three large Split Shot placed as close to the eye of the hook as possible. I cast as far upstream as possible and let it settle slowly on the bottom, give the bait a couple of twitches or slow lifts then let it settle for a couple of minutes and repeat the process. I'm sure you already know this method but I thought I'd put it out there for you anyway.
The other method if you have the patience for it is Drop Shotting, i swear by it. I use a heavy duty Fluorocarbon 35lb leader and 12lb Braided Main Line with a 2-inch Eddystone Eel as my lure, find a spot, cast to it and don't move the rig from its spot, just vibrate the line gently for a good few minutes then wind in a bit and repeat.
It can be a real test of patience as you're not covering much ground but patience is a virtue sometimes..🤞🥴
I hope this helps you out in some way or maybe gives you some other ideas, if you have questions on any of my vids I'm more than happy to help..
Fingers crossed for you my friend, good luck and thanks again..😊😊
Is there a proper slip way nearby where you can launch a 13 fishing boat? , good comprehensive video.
Hi my friend, thank you for the nice comment.😊 Can i ask what type of boat i.e is it on a trailer because the only Slipways i know of are quite narrow, for example in my Walton Lane Pt3 & Shepperton Wier Pt11 free fishing playlist. If you own a non Trailered Inflatable it'll give you way more options. That's what I did for years. Here's a useful link for you to check out. electricboatassociation.org/slipways/ lots of useful info.. Hope this helps you out bud..😊👍
@@MUCKER671 Hi, I own a 13ft tinny boat so that should go in, Thanks.
Pleasure, glad to hear it and good luck with this season.🤞🎣
I wouldn’t want to launch anything down that slip other than a small canoe.
Hi, thanks for your input bud.. Its definitely a tight one but I've managed to launched my 3.1mtr inflatable there a few times, you just need to keep a close eye on the submerst metal post, it's only a few inches under the surface in summer levels..🥴🥴
Hope you have a great day tomorrow..😊👍
Im going to give this spot a try can you bivvy up or is it day time only ? Im down London way Thorpe park Pretty soon im bringing the tackle
Hi bud, there's lots of spots for Bivvys here, especially downstream from the bridge. No restrictions to worry about. I'll be fishing and filming in great detail here myself soon in my new Bellyboat and also lots of other spots that I've covered so far so keep your eyes peeled for that.👍
I really hope you have a good time and catch lot's of fish..
Don't forget I'm always here to help any time..👍🐟
Cheers bud..! 😊
@@MUCKER671 look forward to the vlog .. thanks for the info its appreciated
Pleasure..😊
Can you fish directly from the campsite into the weir? If so would you need to book with the campsite? Any info would be much appreciated.
Hi buddy, I've never asked if you have to be staying on site to fish I'm afraid, I'd imagine you would.? 🤔
Here's some info if you decide to stay anyway bud..👍
If you look on Google Maps in the North East corner of the campsite nearest the Wier there's a small overgrown swim that has a tiny wooden platform that you can underarm flick to the main runoff (7ft rod's are best here) it's deep & fast under your feet plus a lovely sand bar in front. Downstream on what's called The Island on the campsite is two other swims, one accessible sometimes the other is a large set of wide high concrete steps to fish in open water. I take long adjustable + short skinny Rodrests, Rodrests capable of being used on concrete ie large height adjustable Rod Pod. (Normal rod lengths on the Concrete steps though).
Basically pack for all scenarios bud.👍I normally get the tickets from the office on arrival (best check before).
If you ask when booking the campsite you may be lucky enough to get the pitch that's right next to the Wier. That normally happens when you book within 24 hours of arrival when it's available. I don't think they let you pick Pitches in advance (best check again though). P.s if you do stay on site be aware of the grumpy manager, he's a tyrant when it comes to pitch sizes etc. I hope this helped in some way buddy..😊👍
@MUCKER671 that's great thanks, just doing some research on spots to fish next season.
Pleasure..😊 if you haven't seen them already I do have around 20 vids full of free river fishing parking etc here's the link if you fancy taking a look. th-cam.com/play/PLnYnmtG_W7NBkBvIJwhSRwDalBnthsf1i.html
I'll be glad to answer any questions any time bud..😊👍
@MUCKER671 I have watched a few, I planning next seasons Barbel fishing. Thames or Wey, I'm unsure atm.
So much choice it can be difficult sometimes..😊👍
Hi is there any free stretches in the kingston area and will you be covering these as i live in south london
Hi there, my next couple of videos will be around Eel Pie Island hopefully, using Ham Street Car Park also parking at the end of River Lane, both just off the A307. Really productive free fishing in both these spots but please be aware of the tides as Ham Street Car Park completely floods on a spring tide when there is extra water on the river due to rain. You can park on the verge just outside the car park at Ham Street to get away from most of the water. There's a large slip way at River Lane, It's possible to fish on the right of the slip and on it at night. Great perch fishing near the slip almost under your rod. You can fish the upstream section at Ham Street car park opposite Eel Pie Island all the way down to the River Lane spot. Not many accessible swims but there is the odd Peach. I'd suggest for the first time travelling light and doing a bit of a recce between the two spots. These spots have a long drop to the water at low tide so remember to bring a long landing net extension handle on both stretches. It's great for all species especially Perch at River Lane almost under your feet on the right hand side of the slip. Bream and Carp in the slack area below Eel Pie Island, there's some large steps to use here. Silvers along the edge of the Island. Heavy Backleads are a must as it can be busy.
Lots of detritus in the river on a spring tide and when the river is in flood, seaweed, branches etc.
My best advice is to be confident and take it head on here as it can be very frustrating but very rewarding sometimes..
I Hope this helps you with your fishing quest..🤞
Thanks for your question, happy to help anytime.😊👍🎣🐟
@@MUCKER671 thank you are there many barbel in the tidal
The tidal stretch is definitely one of the best spots on the Thames for a large Barbel (excluding the area between Hampton Court and Sunbury) they thrive in the saline water..
Definitely try the dropoff off the sand bar below Eal Pie Island, opposite the large set of steps first if you can.
Normal Carp tactics, but using the fishy paste method that i love to use and no loose feed needed..!
Not sure if you have seen my other vids on free fishing and parking in my playlists but i show the rig etc near the start of my last upload, Pt16 at Laleham, It's about 2.35 seconds in.
The river isn't what it used to be, is can be hard at times but when you do find them it's very rewarding.
Hope this helps you..😊🤞
@@MUCKER671 thank you
Do you catch barbel in the daytime from here or do you night fish it buddy.
First choice is alway night if you can all over the Thames unless the waters up and really coloured bud.
I've had smaller Barbel in daylight just upstream from the Bridge and in the slight crease that can form between the Lock & Bridge on occasion but for the best chance in daylight definitely a Dingy to get to the Wier outflow. Big shoals of Bream can keep you busy while you wait.
Thanks for the comment it really helps..😊👍🎣🐟
Ps thanks for pointing out the spelling mistake earlier, Laleham not Layham OOP'S that's the second time I've done that.. Lol.. Thanks again buddy great spot..👏👏👍
@@MUCKER671 i deleted because i did not want to offend you yes it’s Laleham lol the weir is just after the train bridge you can see the weir from the Bp petrol station in Hampton court just on the other side of the road from the station i do not have a boat but often watch the guys from the petrol station with there boats fishing yes i have never caught a barbel in the day thats why i ask thanks buddy.
No probs buddy, no offence taken, I'm glad you pointed it out, think my brain was somewhere else when doing the vid. I was editing it at 4am so no surprise there Lol..🥴 I'll probably do a vid on the River & Wier next year as my dinghy decided to spring a leak right on an inner seem which is impossible to fix without stripping off most of the original heavy duty strips of rubber protectors underneath. Shame co's id love to do an actual fishing vid on that spot. Great info by the way..😊👍
@@MUCKER671 fishing from weirs on boats is productive but the rest of the river is usually dead in the day for big barbel or carp nights is the best if you dont own a dinghy pal
No doubt about it buddy, dingy is the way to go. I've had 80% of all my best catches off a boat, for some reason the angle change in the line seems to help a little bit, I don't think they're as spooked bye it.
