Angling Times visits the UK's best big fish canal

Angling Times has just visited a canal that has produced chub to over 7lb, and fish in excess of 5lb are coming out regularly to match and pleasure anglers.

The cameras turned up to see how specimens like this are landed on pole tackle and we weren’t disappointed, in the company of one of the best canal matchmen in the Midlands.

The venue is also full of carp, perch and bream, is fishable on a £2.50 day ticket and you can go for miles without seeing another angler – don’t miss the feature in next Tuesday’s Angling Times and catch a  video of the action at gofishing.co.uk.
