The canal last night....
Did anyone have the fortune of fishing along the east end last night?
I had a blast casting while doing a balancing act on a 10" rock face!
The fish were there, although there was very little surface action.
I only fished a couple of hours, up to around the turn of the tide. Managed to land 4 fish, 2 which were definite keepers, all of which were released. I did lose 2 fish, one freed itself, the other broke me off.
Th one that broke me off was helped by me, as it was running out to the bay like a freight train with no brakes! Since there were a few others fishing about 50' to my left, I really couldn't expect them to hold off on fishing while I fought this beast. I couldn't tell how long it would take, so I did the only thing I could think of: I cinched down the drag and held onto the spool until the fish and I parted company.
Other than that I would say it was a good night, reminding me of one of my REALLY GOOD fall-run nights (think Columbus Day Massacre).
