About Ulverston Canal

As a canal in England, United Kingdom, Ulverston Canal fishes best when the flow is steady and the water is clear enough to see a foot or two down. Anglers who do well at Ulverston Canal pay attention to small things: the angle of the current, the colour of the water, what's hatching, where the wading birds are working. Fly anglers can match local insect activity; spin anglers can run small spinners or soft plastics through the same lies.

Fishing Techniques

• For Piked dogfish

  When targeting piked dogfish, try chumming with oily fish scraps to attract them to your fishing area, improving your chances of a catch.

• For European flounder

  When using lures, fish slowly along the bottom with occasional twitches to attract attention; flounder are ambush predators.

• For Tench

  Pre-baiting your swim with particles like hemp or corn can significantly improve your chances of attracting tench and holding them in your fishing area.
