D&R canal report
Launched the boat on the canal at Amwell and cruised up to the high tension lines (which were making sizzling sounds) throwing a keitech under over hangs as there wasn't much structure present. Picked up one dink lmb that way and figured I could cover more ground trolling the keitech along the sunny bank. Got two better lmb's, two slime darts, and a yellow perch on the keitech before turning around at Blackwells Mills. Put on a big chartreuse buzzbait with a paddle tail yum dinger and trolled it along the sunny side back down to the power lines looking for a basking musky with no luck. Switched to a chartreuse and white gold willow/silver colorado blade spinner bait with a keitech trailer for rest of the troll back down to Amwell. Had two fish on that shook the hook halfway to the boat before I could see them. Pulled the boat at the Amwell bridge and threw the spinnerbait around from shore picking up a decent snot rocket to end the day. Water was clean, turtles were EVERYWHERE, and best of all NO TICKS!!!!!
3 bass, 3 pickerel, 1 perch
