Fishing for SEABASS in a Freshwater River!
Can you really catch sea bass in a freshwater river?
Most anglers think of sea bass as a saltwater species, but on certain tidal rivers they travel surprisingly far inland. In this episode, I join guide Sam Cox to experience one of the UK’s most unique fishing opportunities—fishing for seabass on the River Waveney.
Together, we’ll explore why sea bass venture this far upstream, the tactics we use to target them, and whether our day on the water is successful.
If you enjoy sea bass fishing, freshwater fishing, River Waveney fishing, or Norfolk Broads fishing, then this is a video you won’t want to miss.
