chewy, canaan is a good lake. there is a lot more than one spot to fish there. i'll show you one day. also, as far as wading, there are a few good spots to wade, but i wouldn't go out too far because you'll sink real fast. the way that lake is, you won't really need to wade too far anyway.
it is still weed choked, but they are starting to die. and the bass and pickerel are hitting on fat ika's.
as far a s i i knnow, they didn't stock it with trout yet. i think they're gonna stock it in mid-november, & again in april.
anyhow, i guess i'll see you there sometime, since i go there a lot. may try it this frriday afternoon after 3pm.
i usually go the north end of the lake, by ohls street.
good luck, lete me know if you have any questions.
