About Assawoman Canal
Assawoman Canal, in Delaware, United States, is a canal where current dictates almost everything. Rocks, undercut banks, and fallen timber are the obvious targets, but the productive water at Assawoman Canal is often the seam between two current speeds — that's where fish wait for food to drift past. Match the size of your bait or lure to whatever insects, baitfish, or crayfish you can see in the water.

Fishing Techniques
- For Largemouth bass
Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.
- For Spotted seatrout
Look for areas with current and structure, such as points, oyster bars, and grass edges, as spotted seatrout often ambush prey in these locations.
- For White crappie
Target submerged structure like brush piles and docks; crappie relate strongly to cover.
