The channel is where water moves, and fish follow it. Reported across Bristol County: bluegill, chain pickerel and striped bass. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. The near bank of Hundred Acre Cove is often the one people ignore.
