About the venue

In the fields just above and below Canford Bridge, the river is slow and deep and suffers from little fishing pressure. Extensive reeds downstream of the bridge do limit access in some places. Upstream and beside the bridge, the main flow is along the near bank giving good scope for float fishing, which can be productive in the autumn and winter for roach. Dace, chub, bleak, perch and pike are also present throughout the year.
