dont no sh it
syevedurning some of the best canal fishing on herrin or plgs uuuuu were lost in long wand land .... looking dwn on all who wasnt of the fly.... you know it . but it was just another phase and another catching tool.. no big deal ...but chunking was great and fliping fresh dead for the hit was pisser ... its all about what you like . you was my early canal mentor but you strayed . i remember the 1st day fly fishing the canal with you.... but tossing you own plgs in the canal on braking fish is the worlds best ... were lucky to be so close to fish the good tides ... anyhow i,m glad to have u back . you were made to fish the canal . its cheap and great at times , both days and big ones at night .and you know all the spots .... i could go on but you get it .capt c c

mackerel
Never seen mackerel so many and so late into the summer as this year at the canal.
Also seen them off the beach at the east end.

I find the Canal maddening. It has more moods than a woman, is twice as mysterious, loves to tease you, empty your wallet and extract more than a pound of flesh before it gives you any satisfaction. Probably why some poor guys get addicted to it, and only the best feel its love.

It has given me nothing but torment for all the years I have tried to fish it! This season however, we seem to have found a middle ground and I am slowly turning the learning curve......I have never done anything there and this year it has been producing for me!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

One more observation:
I would have to rate the catching of a fish over fifty pounds in the canal, on a plug, on a running west or east tide, to be the ultimate in plug fishing, bar none, and those of you who have done it have my complete respect.
Likewise, anyone who has jigged up a fish over forty pounds in the canal on a running tide is in that same category.
Just very tough conditions, my hat is off to you guys.

Why even try.........

A heavy S should blow the warm water off the top of CCBay.Causing a upwelling of colder water near the mouth on the east end..I have been jigging on the east end in low water and felt the cold water come it.I mean cold..Kinda crazy..
Not sure if this is bad.Just a set back till they get adjusted..
I have had good fishing this time of year up there.I have had tough fishing also..I have not had the time to come up this year.All this canal talk is making me quite despondent over it.Please stop..  |
