 Enjoy Canal & Coarse fishing with Bude Canal Angling Association

Bude Canal AA exclusively offers day tickets for coarse angling on 1.5 miles of the Bude Canal from the sea lock upstream to where the rivers Neet and Strat meet below the A39 road bridge, and on our purpose built 1.25 acre lake at Whalesborough. The canal holds numerous double figure carp with a few in the twenties, plenty of slab bream and a good head of silvers with twenty pound bags not uncommon.

The lake is a new mixed fishery with carp to 5lbs and a good head of silvers. Please check our website for competition bank closures and the very latest match reports on the Association website budecanalangling.co.uk. Access to the canal is good with a tarmac towpath throughout and numerous car parks at the town end of the canal. There are also a number of purpose built fishing platforms on pegs 25 to 30 at the town end which are ideal for wheelchair anglers.

 Coarse Fishing at Whalesborough Lake

Whalesborough lake has 19 purpose built fishing platforms, including disabled and family platforms, and all weather access paths have recently been installed. Day tickets for the canal are available from the Crescent Post Office, adjacent to Falcon Bridge, which is open from 7am 7 days a week, and for Whalesborough Lake from the Weir Café which overlooks the water.
