It's time to go fishing - but wait! - you don't have a boat! How could you forget such a thing?

Well, while many people prefer to fish from the shore, we prefer to do it on a boat. There is nothing more relaxing to a man than sitting out on a boat, away from the rest of society, with nothing but his rod and narrowboat design to keep him company. Really, it's one of the most delightful feelings in the world to be sat out on the blue ocean, float bobbing in the water, and just to relax for a while.

So now you're wondering, where do I get a boat? Should I hire? Should I be buying? Will I have one designed for me, to suit my own needs

The answer is; Do as you choose! Maybe you do prefer sitting on the bank of a river with some sandwiches, waiting for that nibble on the hook, but maybe you prefer to be out in the water on a vessel. Really, this is all your choice. It's your experience, and nobody should tell you how to do it. Read more about new narrowboat builders.

However, if you think a boat is for you - You should definitely consider getting a widebeam narrow boat. They double as not only a vessel to do some fishing from, but a home on the move. You'll be able to fish to your hearts desire, then have your own fish supper right where you caught it - What a life! Is there really that much doubt that you should get your own narrowboat for fishing. I don't think so!
