Hey Sam,

Slightly off topic for the 'Sea' section but you could try Ardingly Reservoir, near haywards heath. Ive fished there and had some nice fish. They do bank and boat fishing. Try googling 'Ardingly pike fishing'. Good luck.

very off topic for the "world sea fishing" --> "south COAST" forum...

however.... i have just been pike fishing on Basingstoke Canal in the inflatable...and not caught any...but did have a beautiful 2lp Perch...damn they look like Bass with those dorsal fins...fckin beauty.

but in all honesty...no i dont know anywhere...i can only suggest catching lil roach and using them as live bait along some of the london canals
