Very enjoyable videos mate, I'm glad to see the banks bursting at church a whilst ago hasn't destroyed the fishing, I feared the worst as there was some large schoals of bream in the stretch that burst it's banks, I hear Huncoat is a good area too.
I had a walk along side this canal in bramley leeds and its beyond maintenance full of weeds amd rubbish thrown in.. great part of teh day was spotting a large terrapin in the canal had to google it but yeah apparently there about so keep your eyes put
When I lived in Leeds I used to fish the L/L at a place called Rodley where barges and narrow boats were moored. Although I was an inexperienced angler back then, I always caught fish even on freezing winter days. Occasionally I'd get the roach going and catch numbers of quality fish on float fished bread. My local canal these days is the Aire and Calder, with the stretch I fish containing some big bream and chub along with plenty of roach.
Every canal has proper fish in people just dont fish them, they would rarther pay to fish for stocked fish at a crappy fishery locked into the place with nothing to look at other then other anglers
great result with the slabs, Mark! some of them fight a bit, I've found! maybe a Tench next time? jacks on lobworms are a nuisance in winter at our end of the LL canal. 👍👍
Cracking session🎣 I’ve cycled past there a few times and put it on my ‘ to fish ‘ list but guilty for not fishing it as yet. Proves that there are some good fish to be had from the canal if you put the work in. Top video and information as usual. Thanks for sharing👍🎣👏👏
Nice session and fish Mark .. I sometimes use little chunks of cat food on a size 12 on the L/L canal as a change bait for targeting the bigger fish , its a messy bait to use as you have to wash off the gravy or jelly first but it does work
The L/L canal on the outskirts of Liverpool, was renowned for huge tench, and bream. Nowadays, its a shadow of its former self, where you would be lucky to catch two tench in an entire season I (like many other anglers) caught my first ever fish on the L/L. Sadly, the fishing has deteriorated over the last couple of decades, and it's now not even worth visiting. Make the most of it mate, as i can only see the decline in canal fishing spreading to all areas.
Cheers, it's the next stretch along from Altham Lane, not far from Accrington. Access is easy but its about a 15 mins walk to this spot from Altham Lane bridge. There are bream all along the stretch, though.
Great session mark it’s good to see you branching out🤣 is that the same stretch that you fished with Gary last year by any chance, it looked familiar ?? Great bream mark well done.
Please subscribe to the channel - It really helps. Thanks! 🙂

Thank you very much. Thankfully, the bream have re-established themselves. There are some nice roach, not far from where the canal breached too.

Cheers Michael. Shame about the canal at Bramley. Didn’t know that about terrapins. Catching one would be a shock 😂🎣
Well done Mark. Some lovely bream there mate, and a very relaxing place to wet a line.
Keep up the good work👍
Thank you Mike 🎣👍

Thanks Marc. Both venues sound great. I must try the Aire and Calder one day
Well done Mark it's good to see quality fish from the canal.
