The Pocklington Canal is a relatively broad canal which runs for 9.5 miles through nine locks from the Canal Head near Pocklington, to the River Derwent which it joins near East Cottingwith. Tench and roach are the most common species and both run to a reasonable size. There are plenty of pike, mostly jacks though occasionally fish running well into double-figures are caught.
