  • Today we explore a micro canal in the urban area of phoenix AZ. These tiny canals usually hold a ton if fish! Let us see what we can find!
    Never pass up a small roadside area to fish, you really never know what you are bound to run into. These little drainage ditches, and tiny canals run all over the place.
    Drop a good ole worm in there next time you pass by and you may be surprised!

    Two ideas for bait to try there. One is simple - Green Giant niblet corn. Niblets are harder than normal canned corn. Easy to stack on a hook.
    - Wheaties. Take a box of Wheaties cereal. Open the box and crush the cereal to a rough powder. Pour the powder into an old sock. Soke the sock in the river water. Squeeze the water out of the sock. Invert the sock and pull out the ball of Wheaties dough. Press the dough into a pancake like object on a flat surface in the sun and let it dry out for 15 minutes. Break off chunks of the pancake and ball up onto a hook. Dough should be sticky like playdough. Carp and catfish go nuts for that.

      Tubular wound bandage/dressing for fingers and toes works great to keep different bait on the hook, with multiple cast. I use fresh liver.

    if you go carp fishing again, try top water bread, easy way to do it is grab a bit with crust and white, fold it so its size you want, take the hook hold it wrap the line around the bread 3 times, then take the line and hook it around the hook pull it tight a little and throw it out there, always works :)

  • @timmontano8792
    @timmontano8792 21 день назад

    I love it when the stretches of canal I fish have alot of shrubbery growing out of the concrete walls. It's some of the closest things to "Structure" that the fish can relate to.
    In most areas I've fished, shopping carts and lawn furniture make up that structure, and an occasional sunken tractor tire.
    Question of the day: Have you ever cast your line and it goes a bit farther than you intended, it hits the far concrete bank and the hook gets snagged on a some king of burr in the concrete and you end up having to break it off and start from scratch? I hate that $h_t.

    Based on the looks of that water and the fish I’d bet that’s storm water that the fish can access when water is high then get trapped

    pleasant video honestly... You should write INSANE because this was awesome truly insane the amount of fish you found.

    Pretty sure the catfish you caught was a bullhead, but you might be right. It might be a Chanel cat. It looked a little dark.

    Try south side of the next major road to the south. Always good for a carp or cat.
