STAFFS AND WORCESTER CANAL, STAFFORD, STAFFORDSHIRE
IN the recent Canal and River Trust Pairs Final the winner of the match came from the Marina near the Stafford Boat Club. This is a good area for bream and skimmers, and fishing the pole around 13m out will put you in touch with the fish. Feed groundbait laced with chopped worm and caster and be prepared to wait for the fish to turn up on this line.
For the bream, light yet balanced tackle is advised, and a No6 elastic coupled with an 0.10mm hooklength puts you in with a good chance of landing anything you hook.
There are also some nice perch and pike in this venue, and fishing with a small jig can lead to lots of bites. CONTACT: Stafford AA, 01785 226720 PRICE: £27 a year, Stafford AA
