Venue : Cannock Extension Canal (All) controlled by Harrisons Sports & Social Club, Wharwell Lane Great Wyrley WS6 6EU

Location: Lime Lane Norton Canes/Little Wyrley (B4154) running from A5 for 1.6 miles to the Junction of the Wyrley & Essington Canal at Pelsall Common.

Description: 100 plus pegs on this arm of canal predominantly in a rural setting which see’s little boat traffic. There are distinctive sections along the canal included a boat builders yard with permanently moored houseboats along with a sheltered length well protected by trees. Seeing little boat traffic enables substantial vegetation to establish itself during the summer months and hence the canal is noted for it’s tench, typically 3lb but reputed to run to 9lb. As well as roach, perch, skimmers and bream for the match and pleasure angler to target, specimen hunters also target large carp and pike that inhabit the canal.

Containing a rare type of weed, the canal is a designated SSI site and does continue to have a close season.

Season tickets are available £5 per annum commencing 1st Jan

Match bookings also welcomed - £1/peg

Along with 'There are distinctive sections along the canal ' I did mention above 'a sheltered length well protected by trees' Dodge

Not sure why Mick/MF decided to do the feature in that particular area with that amount of floating leaves, although that section does throw up a fair share of tincas - but having said that they do crop up all over the place along the length

Is he on the peg that Budgie drew in Match 2 ? The match that Yamo won.
I was on the next peg up on the end of those reeds in the picture ?? I think

This was the section length in the feature, just up from here




Perhaps MH was after one of thee beasties Dodge




Although this section doesnt see too much leaf 'activity'

Is that a Puma guarding his tackle in the background  

And I still don't know where he was lol  

I was a couple of pegs away from Mick last winter when he had 4 monster billies for 8lb when pegged on the Wyrely near the bridge TK , flamin cold that day

Is that a Puma guarding his tackle in the background

No si thats a puma having a crap. Tk aint put that this stretch is very well know for its puma crap were as other stretches only have the boring dog crap

No - he was the other side of the bridge - remember we had 10 or so to the left and 10 to the right of the bridge - he's where Harry the Hitman and The Shark drew on match 2 (I think)

Ahhh right. Gotcha now Cheers
