First Canal Trip of the season
Didn't like the looks of the weather Friday night so instead of RI , we headed to the canal for the first time. Fished the last 2.5 hours of the east running and slack abd one hour of the west running. Got 2 fish. One 30 " , one 22 LB. Jigging with 2 and 3 OZ jigs and large black Curltails from Newport Lures. Went back again on Sat night and got the skunk. Also had a hit Friday on a 5 inch shad body on a shad jig head (2 OZ) but lost it in about 10 seconds. Hated to skip a weekend of the herring but glad we went.
