Bass in the Canal

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Bass in the Canal

Post by eddieboy »

Caught four nice size small mouth bass tonight. Just using fake worms, was closer to Dow's lake this time.

I wonder if Eddie'll be happy they're largies vs smallies. Either way, good going!

p.s. also, that looks like a swimbait?

How's the water clarity in the canal? The rivers are starting to clear up a bit but I'm wondering if the canal and Dow's lake are affected by heavy rains as much.
Money can't buy you happiness but it can buy you fishing gear and that's kinda the same thing.

Yup, there's some nice sized bass in the Canal. FYI check out the inlet near 3rd street in the Glebe off the main canal.

I hit this guy who weighed in at just over 4 lbs. last summer.

They'll also hit almost any plastic you throw at them. Typical Piggies, eh?

Oh, there be some niceeee size bass in the Canal...
