June 20th Surfcasters Report

Don't take this report as there are no fish in the Canal, but it has definitely been an interesting bite. Over the weekend I had the opportunity to take my boat through the Canal and use the fish finder to see what was going on. Needless to say, there are a plethora of fish hunkering down in the ditch. However, they have been extremely finicky. Many have come in the shop and even said they can feel their jigs banging off of fish, but they will not bite anything. After the full moon pogie blitzes, these fish have gorged themselves full of pogies, making it so they only eat something if it pisses them off enough. This is most effective by through live eels, something even the most finicky fish couldn't resist. Fish have been pulled sporadically on top in the early morning tides, but your best bet is going to be jigging, chunking, or live bait. With the new moon coming up soon be prepared for these fish to quickly spark up and begin to feed heavily once again. Tight lines everyone!
