I fished the Ouse near me last week for zander, I caught two Zander around 4lb each and a couple of Jacks around the same wieght,

All where caught on small dead Roach, I did try Trout, Mack, Lamprey Eels and Bream but only had one missed run on Trout

I feel more confident using fresh freshwater dead baits, I think it depends on what bait fish are about in the canal as well

I have tried to get some info about the canal but there is little about but would imagine Roach and Gudgeon would work,

If the water is heaverly coloured then a bait like Trout and Sprats might give off more scent for the Zander to home in on

I am trying to get down to the Canal on Friday the 5th to get some local advise and hopefully to catch some fresh baits

Richard (FFA) said Gudgeon are a good Zed bait for the canal. Aparently the canal used to be stuffed with em, but the zander have eaten most of the population.....

Sounds like something nasty that you might pick up in the seedier areas of Bristol....
