I'm hoping some of you "regulars" out there -- you know who you are -- can enlighten me on just how to fish the Ditch with the long wand. I can think of exactly three spots where it's possible and of those only one fishes well anytime but at dead low.
I keep hearing of people fly fishing the West end, but aside from Bell road what are the options? I've tried at the Maratime academy. It's OK, but if the hoards of bait chuckers are in, forget it. I've heard the flats in front of the radar tower (just down a ways from the academy) are good, but who do you have to know to get access?
My first striper ever on the fly rod was in the canal (at night, of course, about this time last year) so it sounds weird to myself to be even asking this, but I've been very frustrated this season in my attempts and was hoping someone out there could point me in the right direction. Hey, I'd even be willing to try some especially promising spots while the sun's still up
