The june canal fiasco was a riot. First trip to block a place that ive casted towards a 1000 times was really great. Learned a lot from a guy who has fished it for 30 years. Blitz of 13-16 lb blues in Ri with my cousin whos biggest fish up to that time was a 20" schoolie. Leaving RI that night at 3 AM to hit a tide at the canal and got a 47" fish. Broke the PB 3 times, all in inches topped off with the 47. Finally got fish on a needle, i know a topwater fling at the canal isnt the typical needle scenario, but it worked for me. And finally getting a fish in a needle the way its supposed to be fished. All in all, a great season. Found some new spots, caught the most big fish i have ever caught in a season. And got into a nice mess of good fish with the GF, i hoped it reignited he flame of fishing.
