  You don't have to pay to walk along the lode. You have to pay to get into the hide areas, which are behind the visitor centre. This entire area, by boat or by walk, is free.

  Also, I'd be surprised if the boatman wasn't annoyed with you guys for mooring on his mooring. That's where he lets his paying visitors on and off.

  That’s correct for the lode, although to access Wicken Fen is payable to the National Trust, and canoeing it is free ☺️

  @@UKCANOEING Canoeing is free, I've done this many times. But accessing the area you accessed is not free, it's also not allowed. There is a sign that says no navigation past this point. This is, in part, because there are water voles along that stretch. Also, I think you just said the same thing as me, the area behind the visitors centre is fee accessed, the entire fen is not. There's the lode, the three outer hides and the 2.5 miles walk around wicken fen. All free. I've been there more than 30 times and I've even moored my boat on the lode for more than 20 nights in total. I was also canoeing down the lode a couple of weeks ago.

  As a fan of the channel and someone who is subscribed I only want the best for you guys on the channel so please don’t take this the wrong way . And I mean this in the best way. Claire I think you’re trying too hard. And not letting it come naturally. Your information is great but very monotone. Maybe less of a poet and more cheerful . Hope this helps you guys and your channel. 👍

  There are otter here but they are more nocturnal as the river gets busy with more people about, we also have grew seals up here. The bird of prey was a Buzzard, lots of raptors between Hardly flood and the Yare plus kingfisher's and Owls at dusk. Lots of people canoe here including me, you should try Rockland broad for a day out, put in at the New Inn 👍

  You missed out the £4 toll you need to pay before Tonnage Bridge. I guess in the depths of winter there's nobody there to check the honesty box but it certainly is an issue with the canal owners if you don't pay.

  Just a few added notes to this video to prevent people being caught out - I believe the approximately 2.3 mile section of the canal shown in this video from the Wayford Bridge junction to the disused lock at Honing (with waterfall) is privately owned by the person responsible for setting up the Dilham Canal Camping and canoe hire, Glamping pods etc (the charitable Canal trust are primarily involved in renovating the sections ABOVE Honing Lock rather than this section). While previously having free permissive access the owner has now effectively banned hire canoes/kayaks/SUPS from other hire companies (e.g. Bank Boats at Wayford or Sutton Staithe boatyard) using this section of the canal so only his own hire fleet can use it. Private kayaks/canoes/SUPs etc are required to pay a toll (£5 per vessel per trip in 2023?) to access this section of the canal payable either to the staff or the honesty box located at the landing stage with the sign on it seen on the left at approximately 4 mins 2 seconds into this video - As far as I am aware this toll is applicable all year round. A sign to this effect, recently updated, is displayed at the Wayford Bridge Junction (although the actual toll price is not shown there as far as I know).

  I'm enjoying your adventure. I'm an avid canoe paddler on the east coast of Canada. I'm usually paddling in worse conditions. Best advice is to melt into the boat. Relax, be mindful of your center and melt. Boats want to stay upright naturally. I know the anxiety of not feeling good like that. It's sucks. 🙂

  @@UKCANOEING Yes I have canoed in just about every condition. The most challenging was along the north shore of the Atlantic ocean. The surf and swells were concerning to say the least.

  The Little Ouse really is a bit of a hidden gem. I've never paddled it in the winter but after watching this I definitely will. You should come back and do it in the summer as it's a really diferent experience. I saw my first Kingfisher there last spring. St Helens picnic area gets really busy at weekends & bank holidays in the warmer months though. So much so that I get down there at around 06.30 or 07.00. It gets so busy in fact tgat parking becomes near impossible. Thanks for sharing this. A really enjoyable watch👍
