A couple of years ago I posted a question on reel-time about fishing the canal using spey casting technique and it generated a bit of interest. I forgot to pack my 15' spaghetti stick on my next trip so never got to try it out.
Spey technique gets mentioned a lot in connection with steelheading and the canal seems set up well for it - plenty of current whilst the tide's running. Also, since, when executed properly, the fly never passes behind your head there's less likelihood of lawsuit from unsuspecting/curious passers-by!
Anyone interested or any experiences to share?
Maybe during the herring run, late April/May?
