look who was fishing the Ditch this morning

[Rockport24]

I heard he caught that fish that was on the back of the bike over in chatham and then peddled it over to the canal!

that was a joke....

The problem is that most of the guys that are saying it's OK to post about the canal don't fish it regularly. They come down once or twice a month, leave, and then feel the need to tell everyone and their brother on here how good the fishing is. That is completely inconsiderate and disrespectful to the guys who fish it consistently,who don't pay attention to reports, and don't rely on them. Can't you see how frustrating it would be to put in all that time and then have a couple heroes come on here and give everyone a free report? If you can't see that then you are completely oblivious or you could care less. Put in your time and find your own fish...

Exactly Bart. Exactly. I don't mind guys fishing around me. I have dealt with it for 40+ years. What I do mind is the "Paul Reveres of the world announcing "come one, come all.

Stripermaniac, I respect you but you are off base as far as I'm concerned. I DO have 50 different spots to fish in the Ditch. I do talk with a lot of guys but I have my favorites and after I do an 80 mile drive to get to one of my spots at 3:00 AM to find 3 guys with white buckets who don't have a &^%$ clue as to what they are doing, I get annoyed. Clearly they are there because they got a "report".
