I'll take the cold, snow and less fishing pressure 9/10 times.

What?! You don't like combat fishing?!  :w00t:

That is what the canal has turned into.  Unfortunately I'm a little late to fish these two fisheries and just happened to start fishing them at the peak of their popularity.  I guess better late than never but it would sure have been nice to fish those places before the crowds.

It will most likely get worse before it gets better.

The canal used to be so epic.  Not so much for less people but because the striper population was so much better. The canal will be empty if we have another mortorium.

The canal pre crowds was a special place indeed. I remember when I was 12 or 13 just cruising on my bike and casting plugs at pods of fish and catching dozens of fish all the way from the RR bridge to the sagamore bridge without one other person fishing. Didnt have to worry about anyone or being robbed. It will most likely never be the same again.

Not in this day and age. Even if it dies down due to lack of fish, all it takes is one facebook or forum post and they masses will be back.

Hey at least no private entities control access to the canal like they do at the salmon river.  That entire river should be open to the public.
