Contradictory information

The fishery rules on swimbooker do not match those on the fishery website, for example the website makes no mention of house pellets only yet after you’ve paid and booked through the fishery website and then downloaded the swimbooker app’ that’s when the app tells you it’s fishery pellets only. Trying to get a refund will prove difficult

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review Mike! We ask all fisheries/venues on swimbooker to maintain accurate information on their profile. Unfortunately, we have no control over the information listed on their own website. If you would like to discuss further, please don't hesitate to contact our support team with more information so that we can inform the venue in case any information needs changing.

Warm regards,
Team SB 😁

Booking

The colour code is really awkward when you’re colour blind! I don’t know how you can simplify it though!

Easy to use but spammy follow up emails after joining

Easy to book a peg at a local venue but then as soon as I joined the 'spammy' stuff started & I don't mean the chubb bait type, it was 'free 7 day account upgrade' I didn't want or need or even request, shortly followed by 'have you got everything you need' with links to various companies, again not requested & given the fact I had to specify lake, date, times, peg number, angler details, rods etc I'd you would rightfully assume I did have everything I need & even if by some miracle I didn't have there's none of those companies could get me anything to my door quick enough or cheaper than go outdoors because of postage costs, it's a handy tool to book a peg on a lake but that's all I want it to do

Getting on with the app

Not to much info to get on top of you, keeping things as simple n straightforward makes it a lot easier to navigate the app, for any of us over 45yr using fones n apps to book or buy products can be stressful n we come fishing to get away from stress!

Never felt so welcome to a fishing lake

Never felt so welcome to a fishing lake

As we turned up we was met with a friendly welcome and checked in. The beliff then asked about how we was fishing etc and recommended a good spot to catch.
Sure enough 2 carps later! Great day there and clean, tidy and good facilities to top this experience off.
Thank you to the team at Claygate lakes
