troutman62 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I've booked a riverside property on the main river on the outskirts of Wroxham for a fishing holiday in the summer, its one of the last ones before you get to Wroxham broad, has anyone got any idea of the Bure depth in that area ? Can't seem to find any info on main river depths anywhere on the Broads ! regards Stefan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 This composite was made a couple of years ago from the BA's hydro graphic survey and the OS OL40 map. I don't believe there's been much dredging done up there since, so it's probably still reasonably accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadScot Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 For those of us Alan who went to school in the early 50s the conversion to imperial is as follows 2.5 Mtrs = 8ft 2 and 27/64 of an inch 3.5Mtrs = 11ft 5 and 51/64 of an inch.

Baitrunner Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Iain I now like the idea of someone trying to set their float to within a 64th of an inch so they don't fish over depth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
