Shoot me a PM

Get ready because as soon as the rain lets up from Isaac. The fish will be biting!!!! Any canal you see, the water will be flowing. Just look for pipes or bridges with pipes running under them. Use topwater, crank, or rubber worm, depending on depth and vegetation. I would start with top water. If there fired up, they will smack it with vengence. :respect-059:

I went out yesterday in the morning and was catching Peacocks and LM's on top water. Then I want back out later that day to a LM spot and was catching them on rubber worms.

I live in Oakland park. I was going to a spot out in Tamarac but the security at the store told me i couldn't fish there anymore so i really don't know where to go.

Griffin road and 441, there's a giant wide canal the runs west, plenty of access from land and you can walk for miles.

Yes, that place is great, some BIG Peacock Bass there to!

Fostinator,

Try twin lakes park in Oakland Park (prospect rd and poerline). There are two big, deep lakes on both sides of a walking path. That entire stretch you can fish. I've caught a couple bass in the 5lb range out of there.

Just north of oakland park blvd on 441 there is a bridge. The canal runs west-east underneath it , from markham park to just west of 95 (spillway) . check it out on google maps. I personally think the more west you go the better fishing but in general that canal holds LMB, peacocks, cichlids, snakeheads, bowfins etc.
