any ideas for reasonable priced river fishing, oap, so funds are restricted

having lived in chichester for many years there is little trout river fishing near, the lavant dried up many years ago, i presume the rother at midhurst could be ok, there is a tackle shop in chichester do they know??

you could have a go for Bass at/around Chichester Harbour...there are two guides doing it.

There's good trout in the Rother below Petworth, and some sea trout. I suggest you contact Andrew Thompson, the bailiff, on 01798 342 502 or their Web site

Lovely small river

hello did you ask the tackle shop in chi, there also was a shop in midhurst sold fishing tackle and horse tack with resident saddler.

no chichester shop I am afraid, long gone, same with midhurst, only fishing I can find is the petworth rother but near £1000!!!!!!!!!

hello there could be some fishing at rogate i am sure also past rogate over rother the is some fishing there. why not ask at the pub at rogate

thats a shame the 1 on the selsey rd by a27 i used to get my sea bait

thank you all, cowdry estate has some on the rother at £175 a season but not easy to fish for old legs, I was a member on the stretch below petworth for some years in the 80's, but now no longer cheap looking at nearly £1000.

PM sent re river arun at arundel

River Adur by Lancing College, Cuckoo Corner has sea trout run over weed bank, plus Bass, no ticket required, just migratory rod license, as tidal reach, completely free.

You need to check tide tables though but there is a car park and easy to get to cuckoo corner on a good path. Further up the river there are various club stretches and quite a lot of brownies in the river much further up, small but there, and there is always the chub for the fly fisherman.
