PR Fishing leased the fishing rights to the Mongomery Canal – Bridge 76a (A5) to Graham Palmer Lock.
The lease commencement date is 1 November 2020 with an expiration date of 3 years.
PR Fishing is planning to further enhance the fishing experience of this pleasant stretch of canal through cleanup programs and regular feeding of specific areas.
The following image illustrates the stretch of water that PR Fishing has the rights to.
The Stretch of this canal is easily accesible with public parking in three locations.

Is the fishing alowed and can i go fishing there if i have a ticked abd licence ?
Hi Ivo
Sory for the delay in answering I have been out of the country and had a family emergency.
Fishing is allowed on this stretch with an EA license and a day or annual permit from PR Fishing.
I paid for your annual permit on Saturday night. Since then the “order status” has been “processing” and no downloads (I assume that’s where I’ll find a permit .pdf or similar) are available. Is this normal and what I’m I supposed to show your “people” if challenged on the bank? A more general “contact us” option on the website would be useful!
Hi Stephen
First of all thank you for ordering the permit.
I have taken you comments on and I have added a contact page to the site, I am always open to advice on how we can make the community better.
For the proof of rights I send out a membership card, however I am out of the country for another week for work so apologies on my late reply.
Proof of rights can be demonstrated using the email you received when you paid, I will update the email that explains this, the Bailiffs are aware of this and will except it as proof.
Apologies if there was some confusion.

Excellent, thanks for getting back to me so promptly I just wanted to avoid any awkward towpath conversations.
Hope all’s going well work wise.

Walked along the stretch of canal today 6/10/22 from the car park by the railway bridge almost to the Graham Palmer lock mainly to have a look for some good fishing peg’s for when I come down with my fishing gear there was myself the wife and our 4 dogs, What a beautiful stretch of canal it is, on our walk we saw red kites, a heron, a wood pecker and to top it off 3 king fisher’s. I can’t wait to start fishing there.
