Hi Robp, if you have never fished before perhaps viewing some good DVD's on the subject may come in use, angler's like Bob Nudd etc can give you some very good tips, on canals you can find some free fishing but first check that it's not owened by a club.
By the way, welcome to the site

Welcome Rob,
The best advise I could give is read up as much on fishing as you can, and then go watch some adults fishing. If you have got a friend that fishes then go with him/her (you must still have a rod license).
Dont buy those hardback books that seem to cover all types of angling in one (course, game and sea) as there tactics are a bit out of date/useless.
Do buy some monthly fishing mags and Angling times, as they only publish what works.
You have found your way onto a great website here and everyone will help put you in the right direction.
Dont get put off if you dont catch much to start with as you will pick it up as you go along.
