TideFest 2024
The Angling Trust is pleased to announce the return of the Thames Tidefest Angling Championship.
Fished on the tidal river in four zones between Kew Bridge and Barnes, this annual 40 peg match will take place this year on Sunday 8th September.
There will be around 40 pegs across four zones at Strand on the Green (x2), Chiswick and Barnes. We’ve put ten pegs in at Chiswick this year to avoid having to peg the middle of Barnes where the mud has become a problem.
