Woah, just realised I had 5 pm's sorry all, I've turned on email notifications now so will be notified. Also replied to everyone. Interested to hear if anyone's done much on the canals recently. I've been on quite a few walks and seen a few fish around so looking to do some sessions over the next few months.

Been on a few bike rides recently and reckon there's some nice stretches past Kilby bridge towards foxton. Will keep my eye out. Also saw some carp in the canal near abbey park but haven't been back to fish yet.

Great to see someone else interested in this! Ive been reading and speaking to people for the last few months or so and walking the banks quite a bit. Pretty sure I have some decent spots locked down but as you said probably wouldn't feel relaxed in certain areas on my own after dark.

The scope rods arrive tomorrow! Cant wait to get on the canal.... Found quite a few spots where Im sure carp will be. Ive seen them in most of the spots and the others just seem to be perfect. Lets see what happens. Anyone else carping on Leicester canals?

I know this is old but has anyone put in any serious time on this stretch... Ive been up and down a few times recently and am thinking of giving it a real go. I have seen carp both on top and below the weir (100% sure), but this was some time ago. If anyone has any info to share would really be helpful... I'll be sure to share my findings too of course

Thinking of trying above the weir (near the lilies and reeds, not to far from the big bridge), below the weir (near the footie ground at the far bank).... this is where I saw a mid double a couple of years ago. Also want to try near the rowing club on the far bank as it seems like a nice carpy spot and a few people have mentioned it to me.

Anyway hope to hear from someone soon
