[@chelseasweet9318]

TheHe canal has been on fire this year could not get those fish off my pole 🤘

[@OutkastAdventures]

Great video, liked and subscribed. We also just did a video from the Canal, fun place!

[@lureup9973]

I make lures for a living and have often thought of making a stripper plug that could be filled with chum or oil....what are your thoughts?

[@davedarosa9949]

What tide do you guys prefer to fish? High or low? I'm going to hit a breaking low tide fri or sat morn. Hoping to catch them in there

[@donaldtouma2612]

High because thats when the baitfish come most👍

[@Charactermatters650]

“Slim Jimmy Fee and a fine man he”. Waterboys

[@cashmchargue]

Do you suggest felt bottom boots at the canal?

[@paulkenyonk1llr398]

that was a good year,this year not so good,,ahhh

[@aLLsTaR_617]

Chris didn't know the canal etiquette 😂😂 right over Jimmy's line and stole his fish

[@RWAnglin]

aLLsTaRo617o That is the etiquette for half the people I see coming to the canal though lol

[@thomasduff1571]

I just thank God that I experienced what I have experienced and have seen in the Canal. I fished it since 1970 .This is joke these guys will never see what I have seen it's all gone you may have school or two a few come . through those aren't fish those are minnows lol we made a lot money in the day .I doubt these guys even know how to offset a hook ahhh at least they are having fun my best friend pulled the Shark in the movie Jaws with his boat .we had a lot of fun Now I'm disabled and old

[@surfandstreamfisher5749]

Jimmy, teach Chris how to load that rod!

What kind of rods are those being used

[@Vezzo55]

Cool

[@Charactermatters650]

Great Whites? Ha ha - grew up going “down the cape”

[@zaydshah8248]

can you use cut bait, none of my rods are built for plugging or casting lures in general

[@tlfu6836]

It would be difficult to fish cut bait. You'd need a lot of weight to hold the bottom in that current, and you'd probably piss off the people around you because your weighted bait would be stationary and the people casting lures up current of you would keep drifting across your line.

[@brendanwoerner3352]

Zayd Shah as the other guy said plan on fishing between 5/6ounces minimum up to 12 or more with the current ripping over 9knots according to the shimano rep in the show.

[@zaydshah8248]

@@brendanwoerner3352what about is the tide was slow, or if I used live bait like mackeral for example, how would I fish that? so basically bait fishing would be a bad idea

[@abrahamchua119]

Do you always need a bike? Not walkable from parking?

[@jthibault420]

ram chua it's walkable. They use bikes to chase the bite. That and the canal is 3 miles long

[@new_england_times553]

7 miles long. Mile markers are painted on the pavement.

[@TAK1991]

What is the best time of the year to catch one of these monsters

[@brendanwoerner3352]

Ch Jay jay July and August is the striped bass run. But respect others fishing before you or next to you.

[@TAK1991]

Hey thanks for the information and the tip

[@vsonic86]

Whale passing through??

[@savanngim4826]

What didn't they just build the canal straight like the Panama canal? Wouldn't it be easier?

[@OnTheWaterMedia]

The west end follows an old river that ran most of the length of the canal up to the herring run. They dredged and widened the old river and then dug through the dunes where the east end connects to Cape Cod Bay now.

[@nicksmith1840]

Savan Ngim because this is America if you don’t like it then good!

[@MrSurfcaster76]

I'll be driving up in two weeks me and my 14 year old son

[@zach6383]

Will a 7 foot rod suffice for cape cod canal fishing?

[@OnTheWaterMedia]

We'd recommend something a little longer. Here's another video we put together as a tackle, lure, and etiquette guide for new comers: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5uTdZ1_p7uafM0

[@fishingwithvinny8369]

Eric Flowers welcome

[@BerettaShotThanYou]

Since when are you supposed to do this up and down motion while reeling in? Every time he does that he takes the pressure off of the line for a second. One good head shake and the fish is off

[@jamesmatkowski33]

bassmaster 401 there is pressure with the reeling. That's how he gains line on the fish. If not that same headshake in that current would be snapping either line or rod. Notice no reeling on the pull back. Imo anyway

[@BerettaShotThanYou]

James Matkowski i can see moments where the rod isn't bent and the reel isn't turning. It's not likely the fish will come off but it's just a chance I don't take.

[@ryanbonamici9996]

MOPAR 401 the cape cod canal also has a crazy current so there is always constant pressure

[@taylorprattson6856]

#catchandrealese #striper

[@miliariabdelaziz357]

most of the fishermen turn the fish back is it a law?

[@davedarosa9949]

Miliari Abdel Aziz you can keep one per person if you have a license. And the fish have to be at least 28 inches long.

[@donaldtouma2612]

And if you catch a second fish that is over 40 inches after that first legal fish that has to be 28 inches, you can keep that 40 incher as well.
