Watch as I test McDonald's, Burger King, and KFC to see which one brings in the most fish. Will burgers, fries, or chicken reign supreme in the world of fishing? Tune in to find out!

    Not actually Croydon canal. Officially it's the Surrey docks canal.

      @chrisdavies3572 this is the information I need. Why is it referred to croydon canal. Surrey docks makes more sense

    • @chrisdavies3572
      @chrisdavies3572 2 дні тому

      Glad you are interested. From Surrey docks the canal came inland from the Thames. It crossed underneath the old Kent road and under the railway line between new cross and London bridge heading toward Peckham.. it rose through a flight of locks. There are three railway bridges, forest hill, penge, and Norwood junction. Look at them carefully and it becomes clear they in fact canal bridges. From Norwood junction an original towpath is now an access road for rail track vehicles. Between selhurst goods yard and east Croydon there remains a lock that was converted into part of the junction and on the Croydon side of the there is or was a road known as towpath way. The canal came to an end on what is now east Croydon station.

    The last few times we've taken our Grandaughter over to Kelsey Park in Beckenham there a little stretch of water near the Becks it's a run off from the main lake, it goes under a road then pops up again runs pasts a few house then goes into an underground canal possibly, but there's this one little bend where I always save a couple of slices of bread as I know there's quite a few small fish around the 6inch mark some seem bigger. I hate it as I'd love to dip my rod in lol but don't want to upset the little one, also I can't stand getting moaned at, a school boy trait I still can't shift, I just end up peeing people off lol. There are No no Fishing Signs though. Their quite slim and very zippy with I think Black tops and silver bottoms. Don't think fishing is allowed but know the lake is fished a night.
