Funny I can remeber fishing the Canal ooohhh back around 74 the week before grauation and there were about 8 of us. We bounced around the Herring run and a few other nice old spots. Met a man named Gibbs . Didn't like the look of the old beat up plugs I was using so he gave me a couple of his. He even told me how to fish a few nice spots to include driftin herring with a small egg sinker to get to the big fish under the schools by the run.Worked some sweet and even got a nice 34 lber later on one of his swimmers. Weighed it in and got a slip for the Scheafer Tourn. saltwater sportsman and the fisherman had a few articles about the canal and the nice camping area right under the bridge that was good fishin. No one owned the canal back then and -SPOT BURNING -wasn't even part of the language back then. A shame so many people own spots now and are the only ones that can talk about them on their CELL PHONE spot burners association.Don't remember seeing a whole lot of them around back then.Nice when I hear all the brakes squeeling and then have plugs fly over my head cause someone on a bike with a cell saw me land or hook a fish and do just what I hear complained about here so often.The canal and most big public spots belong to all that can access them not just the abutters. Some of use need to remember that at times.Just my 2 cents.
