Over 150 pegs of very good Canal fishing to the West of Nottingham City Centre. The Canal allows Boats to travel through Nottingham avoiding the shallow water on the Trent at Clifton Bridge and the weir at Beeston. Being joined at both ends to the River Trent means that all the species found in the River can probably be found in the Canal. Roach and Bream are the predominant species, however, large Chub often show up along with the odd Carp. There are many points of access and good towpaths make certain lengths ideal for anglers with disabilities.

Day Tickets are available. Night Fishing is not allowed. No Closed Season, Open all year.
