Roundmoor Ditch (Bath Road PS / TVAA)

Roundmoor Ditch is a short, small-stream fishery at Eton Wick, available to Bath Road Piscatorial Society members through the Thames Valley Angling Association. It can fish surprisingly well in the right conditions, with winter singled out as a particularly worthwhile time.

The lowdown

  • This is a proper little stream rather than a big, open Thames-style venue. BRPS describes it as a relatively short section of small-stream fishery, so expect a more intimate bit of water.
  • The stream sits near the village end of the B3026/Eton Wick Road. Follow the B3026 through Eton Wick and keep an eye out for the water after crossing the stream.
  • There’s room for a couple of cars immediately after crossing the stream. If that’s full, BRPS says anglers can alternatively park in the housing estate before reaching the stream.
  • The watercourse separates Dorney Common and Eton Wick. Nearby imagery shows it becoming more river-like in width and depth around Eton Wick and towards its confluence area with Cress Brook/Boveney Ditch.
  • Don’t write it off because it’s short. BRPS says the ditch can provide surprisingly good fishing when conditions line up. A bit of colour and the right flow could make all the difference.
  • Winter gets a special mention. That’s when the stream can produce relatively large bags of roach and dace, making it a handy cold-weather option for members.
  • The named fish list is nicely mixed for a small venue: roach, chub, barbel, perch and pike are all mentioned by BRPS, alongside dace.
  • Keep things tidy and low-impact. TVAA rules ban litter, bonfires, barbecues, and cutting trees or bankside vegetation. The bankside clearly isn’t yours to remodel.
  • It’s a members’ water, so bring your current BRPS membership card. TVAA also asks anglers to follow Check, Clean, Dry biosecurity guidance, and all fish must be returned.
  • We're not sure on ticket prices for this one — check with the club or local regulations before you leave.

Methods: The checked details point most strongly towards winter fishing for roach and dace, with the stream’s conditions doing plenty of the talking. Use a sensible approach suited to this short water and stay within the TVAA rules.
