A bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work

hey mike, do you know the rail road bridge on the canal? i recalled that OTW's article talked about canal. it said that on the east side is more productive. and it stated that on the east side of the railroad bridge is more productive. however, there was construction going on last summer. and i was determined to know if there is a way to access to the east side of the railroad bridge. and i only saw some hedge blocking the access on the rocks. well, is there or not?

Have no fear Canalman in here!!!!

I once caught tatoo on a live eel... as he drifted by on an October swim across the canal. October has been my favorite canal month ever since!

Tattoo fishing, It takes alot of time and Years to learn How to fish for Tattoo's
I think they may be making a come back.
Look around rocks and dont cheat with doping up Your plug with Blooberry Juce.
Tattoo's seem to run in RI and in the summer a few Tattoo's been caught out at the race.
here is My 1st caught Tattoo. We held it Up It was a good size Tattoo
Put up a good fight and I put it back and lost a pink Musso darter on another one....

Canal

June most guys catch the big ones on jigs but some lucky few are able to raise them on plugs

Notaro the RR bridge is great place to fish espcailly on a slack tide
