Recently I popped up to the tidal Thames at Teddington for a session with Richard Crimp and one of his friends. I has been encouraged to fish the Thames when I looked into the Thames Anglers Conservancy website and forum.

Even through the best angling is to be had at high tide when the river flow slows to a crawl, anglers were there in numbers several hours before this.
