Wendover Arm  Canal

No night fishing
Day and Guest tickets available on the bank

The Wendover Arm extends down from the turning circle at little Tring to the junction of the main canal at Bulbourne.  Access can be gained from either the pumping station end (this involves some walking and rough terrain) or at little Tring Gamnel bridge (near Heygates Flour mill).  This canal takes on the character of a small river and although shallow contains a really good head of quality fish.  Roach often fall to seed baits and of course bread punch.  Good sport is provided at most times of the day.  Roach and perch to well over 1lb and bream going to 4-5lbs are available and all tend to move up and down the arm in shoals.  Chub have also recently taken up residence and are thriving, as well as some large carp, although these provide quite a challenge to land in this small water!  Match weights in excess of 10lbs are often recorded along the length.  Boat traffic is at present light but when the extension is opened will become heavier.

Directions
From the A41 roundabout go towards Tring town centre, past Tesco.  At the Robin Hood roundabout turn right, follow this road to the next roundabout and go straight ahead.  Park just before the canal bridge but not too near to the bridge please.  You may fish both sides of the canal.
