Canal

#1

We was working in Armitage down Old Road. There's a canal right opposite. This guy turned up and started fishing >:(
I was well jealous until it started raining, he had only just finished setting up too

Very good access for cars. Anyone know who runs it ?
See picture......

Can't quite make out/recognise the section - could be Bass AC as I book the waters at the back of the Shanks factory at Armitage and Bass AC they control from there upto Handsacre. Walsall and District AC controlled the next 4 mile from the pub at Handsacre

A good cut - ask The Wedge who knocked out 12lb roach on our match earlier in the year, backed up by 9 & 8lb roach nets

MrV will probably be the man to confirm..........

Yep - just looked at the google map link - it's Bass AC

We fished the section to the left - you'll spot the church by the factory

What did you catch there Tony ?
There's a tackle shop near there isn't there.

Simon. Its Carthys tackle on the main road. if you drive up old road with canal on your right, you come to a t junction. carthys is immediately on left.
Cracking stretch mate.

Cheers Paul and Tony

What fish can you expect to catch there ?

Predominantly roach. with a few rogue chub on pegs.
Wedgey won with 12lb roach this season, the Worminator won with a couple of chub for nearly 6lb on the adjoining section (most of us got blew off in gales) if I recollect the year before
