Canal secrets are hard to come by.  Mostly at night.  Im holding off until the cows come home.

Nice!  Some of those hold over spots should be warming up.

Plum island.. Merrimack river... they should show any day... then head straight to the Lawrence dam... hold over rats only  at this time..it's  still early.. time to load up on haddock before I worry about bass.

Getting the canal gear ready for memorial day.  Usually hit or miss that weekend for bigger bass.

.. Ha.. good luck Jon...you and every other jabroney looking to repeat last seasons carnage...last time I fished the canal was 1976.... I'll settle for less fish and peace of mind...

in '76 I followed the striper migration south.. starting at Popham beach in Maine and finished in Ocean city Maryland...broke ... tired and happy... my '67 VW bug have up the ghost on the way home on the N.J. turnpike... we traded our remaining gear for a ride to the Mass. boarder.. then hitch hiked the rest of the way home... if you tried that today you'd get arrested for vagrancy...
