What will you use this year in place of herring ?

[Flaptail]

Haven't used herring in years anyway so plugs will be it. Herring made it too easy to catch fish. Noticed last year all the herring heroes were remarkably absent from ther canal in spring. To tough for them to try and catch them using a plug.

I t was kind of nice seeing the canal banks clean and free of debris and litter from that crowd.
