Canal access itself has no entrance fee. Let's Fish hour slots are £5 plus booking fee via online booking - check remaining slots, as sessions sell out. Free parking is listed on the event page for coaching days.
Outdoor bankside coaching means weather, mud and water hazards. Everyday attraction opening hours are not published - it is a public waterway, and coaching runs in bookable one-hour slots within the event window. No toilet or cafe claim found on the booking page or CRT Let's Fish pages this pass.
