Thanks for all the help. The one I did catch from the general slurp/splash area was a small guy but its tough to walk away from those splashes. I tried the mag darter as its a favorite of mine and not just for small fish but no luck. God advice to walk away and fish deeper in the rips than waste time on small guys. Like some have said though confidence comes with numbers of smaller fish though and as a fairly new canal angler it does help. That big bluefish really made me think I am at least doing something right.
