The other thing that i notice is the lack of etiquette that comes a long with a crowd that has people new to the canal that didnt get a chance to pull their heads outta their asses at 5AM. Today took the cake. Two guys in waders in a place that you dont need waders (99% of the canal...) they set up shop about 10 feet from two guys. 10 feet to the side and 15' in front of them, down stream. The isnt Montauk guys. I keep to myself when fishing most of the time and pretty much avoid confrontation. But they would have never gotten to their rocks if i was near them. Common sense goes a long way. Canal rant for the day is over, carry on.

If a hook puts a tear in those waders, or even worse, your thigh, you had fair warning.

I completely misinterpreted what Rob Rock was talking about (sleep deprivation is beautiful). These guys highjacked
and got in the water downstream? Here I thought Rob was just reflecting on the fact they were standing on the rocks wearing waders
Mike is right, those guys is deekheads.
