Pole Elastics In its use of special elastics, pole fishing represents a unique way of playing and landing fish. While conventional running line anglers use a combination of rod flex and the reel’s drag to land fish, a pole doesn’t bend to the same extent and most of the tension of the fight is handled by internally-fitted elastic. Your choice of elastic is down to the fishing you do, but there isn’t such a thing as ‘one size fits all. A thick elastic would be too harsh for catching small roach, just as a fine elastic would be too weak

RUDD A lover of clear, overgrown waters, the beautiful rudd is a fish worth catching on any canal. Watching shoals of these playful fish at the surface is a truly fine way to waste a summer’s afternoon. Introduce a fishing rod and it gets even better. You won’t find rudd abundant on all canals. They seem to do best in weedy places where water clarity is good. They have a wide diet and are as happy gorging on plant growth as the bugs hiding in it. The wild, shallow canals of the West Country and Ireland strike me as perfect

An initial helping of 8-10 dendrobaenas and a few casters, mixed with a little soil or dark groundbait is capital, to be topped up at intervals or after every fish by a smaller amount of bait. A juicy worm, broken in half and presented on a size 12 hook, is an excellent morsel for chub, possessing both scent and wriggle. Chub will feed at all levels of the water. You might argue that they are happiest in mid-water, but baits fished on the

Stick it out or Search? As with virtually any species on our canals, you can be as patient or as mobile as you like in pursuit of tench. You can try and attract the fish to you; or you can track them down. If you are confident of their whereabouts, the sit and wait approach has its merits. Even if you are not bang on the money, patrolling tench could arrive sooner or later. What does seem clear is that different spots vary greatly for tench. In some areas they seem to settle routinely, perhaps because these places offer the

Canal Fishing Season

Why wait till June? Misty mornings and tench bubbles are all part of fishing folklore and any old textblog will tell you that the time to start is in June, with a float amongst the lilies. This doesn’t always ring true with modern canal fishing however and the belief that you won’t catch tench early in the year is a false one. Could this be down to the wetter, milder winters that are becoming increasingly normal? Some terrific bags of tench have been taken as early as January in kinder weather, and the fish can often be found in concentrated
