With hundreds of miles of underfished water, canals represent a vast, untapped fishing resource. From shallow, secluded rural waters to giant urban ship channels, they offer a staggering diversity of angling potential which is open and affordable to all.
Britain’s canals have never been in better shape, with a huge range of species to target. From classic roach fishing to specimen carp, pike and increasingly common surprises like chub and zander, this book covers everything from traditional to ultra-modern techniques.
This is more than just a ‘how to’ volume. With details of venues and notable fish records from every part of the UK, this book also represents an essential guide to Britain’s canals. Whether you’re planning a short break or looking for a fresh challenge on your local ‘Cut’, Dominic Garnett’s book is packed with inspiring ideas, beautiful photography and invaluable information.
What is 2,000 miles long, open to all and stuffed with all kinds of predators? The answer: Britain’s canal network, an undervalued fishing resource as Dom Garnett has discovered. Covers fishing for all canal species, with dedicated chapters on pike, perch and zander. It also includes over 200 stunning colour photos and a comprehensive guide to Britain’s canals with both venue and national specimen fish lists.
