The Leeds Liverpool canal to be exact
A small Zander supposedly caught by a lure angler "dropshotting" in the Wigan area.
And ..... I'm told there is a photograph.
I will try and find out more.

Re: Zander in the North West?
Heard of them turning up in the sankey st Helens canal a couple of years ago (electro fished to quite a good size if I remember rightly) not sure if they where destroyed and have not heard much about them since.
I think they would do well in the Leeds Liverpool, would make for some interesting fishing..................

Poor feckers, only a matter of time before one of them finds itself having to eek out a living in the North East.

There have been occasional reports of zander on the Broads over the years that turned out to be misidentified bass.

There is supposed to be a photo knocking around, I will try and see if I can get hold of it.
