Fishing along the Grand Western Canal
The Grand Western Canal provides a quiet and relaxing venue with a good range of angling opportunities. The canal has a wide range of fish and is particularly noted for its tench fishing in the summer, and pike and perch fishing in the winter.
The canal presents a good challenge to the angler and the section available to anglers extends for eleven miles, meaning there are plenty of opportunities to find a quiet spot and enjoy the tranquility.
Angling rights on the canal are leased to the Tiverton & District Angling Club. In addition to holding a valid rod licence, a permit must be purchased from Exe Valley Angling in Tiverton (01884 2422750) or Minnows Touring Park, Sampford Peverell (01884 821770).
Mid Devon District Council have produced a leaflet about fishing, detailing sites in and around Devon's heartland. You can get a copy of this from the Tiverton Tourist Information Centre by calling 01884 255827.
