Went out this morning at 4.30am. Was a disaster lol. First mistake took the dog and every time I stopped to cast he would start wining and it would drive me round the bend. Was only out half hour and got a snag and gave a wee very sleight tug and rod snapped. Tbh I think the rod was inferior and summat up with it. So came home waited for decathlon to open at 10.30 and went and bought another rod. Went back out for over 2 hours and never got a bite. Complete novice to this, so maybe fishing wrong canal wrong time ect. The water was very discoloured though , not sure if that makes a difference.
