any place you need a special rod and reel to fish isnt worth fishing in my opinion

the setup in that canal allows everyone to see what other people are doing so you have the hot rod/reel/lure, etc. My gut tells me 30yrs ago guys were slamming trophy fish on off the shelf rods and mediocre reels

please keep in mind I've fished the canal about a dozen times, never caught a bass there and have absolutely no clue on how to fish there. But as an observer, I think the proximity of fisherman in the canal leads to obsession over lures/rods reels. Is it the gear or the fisherman?
