pegasus bridge Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) I think you can night fish there, you'll have to que up if you want to fish on the weir though, every time I've been to the weir it had been occupied with a que waiting!

The Mighty Prawn Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Grand union canal between Knowle locks and Hatton locks, but the Hatton end is best. Don't know who controls it as have always fished from a boat which has full perms the length of the canal but it was pretty stuffed last time I was there as we were after the pike but the sander wouldn't leave us alone long enough, caught loads Also Coombe abbey lake by Coventry is stuffed with massive zander, used to hold the record there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
