at least in my experience there's a lack of dink/young smbs in the canal. Every one ive seen was at least 2 lbs. Not surprising to me if they do reproduce in there though. I think it floods more between the millstone and the canal. I suppose a lot of bass make it over to the canal that way. Most likely from the delaware river though.
