It was another good week in the canal as Jeff from Canal Bait & Tackle related that he sold a load of their Ghost White Bullet Pencils to anglers reaching out and catching stripers from just over slots to 45-inches in the canals east end and down to the Herring run. Some anglers had given up on the canal but that gauntlet has been producing stripers, some sea bass and a few tog in the holes in the rip rap. The mackerel have been moving in and out of the east end, some around towards Barnstable then back in the ditch with the bass on their tails. There have been some blues in the east end and his customers have been reporting back on the action and locations. Stop in and see what Jeff and Bruce can do for you.

The canal has been producing some nice bass as Jeff from Canal Bait & Tackle said his customers using their mackerel shads and jigs were landing bass well over 40-inches. The east wind has been given the credit for the good action as anglers from Plymouth, the east end jetties and a few guys reported great action inside of Barnstable Harbor. There were also bonito and some jumbo blues inside the canal as the boat fishing was completely shut down by the storm. They have a large selection of those Canal Jigs and their canal rods in stock and ready to fish. Stop in and say hello to Jeff and Bruce. If you’re lucky perhaps Clark might be working with his grandfather and he is always happy to provide some tips.
