Don't despair Steve....EVERYONE was/is a rookie. You bet; the Canal and it's environs can be tough to learn, and the experience can cost you some hardware.

You are already halfway to the solution, ie stating you are stumped. Next step is to find someone approachable and ask away.

I experienced much the same frustration when I started fishing the Ditch. I was a decent basshound in other areas, caught a lot of fish, had some experience. But the canal humbled me. I saw some traffic here on the Web, lurked a bunch, then started direct questioning of those guys who posted success stories. Mike P, Jim P, and a few others had the Ditch experience I lacked, and when I asked, they helped....

Heck, now I even outfish Jim once in a while (we have become fishing friends), although he seriously trashed me the other day!
