Part 4 – Get set up

Canal towpaths are popular places, so it’s important for anglers to understand how to share the space considerately. In part four of seven, Motty focuses on tips for those entering the junior, cadet and youth canal angling championships.

You'll learn:

how to lay out your fishing equipment to avoid inconveniencing others on the towpath
how to set up your keepnet so that it doesn't interfere with boats or your own fishing
where your parent or guardian should sit when watching you fish
