Palaniuk in the dirt

Brandon Palaniuk is fishing out of Cape Vincent – and he’s fishing very shallow.

But that doesn’t mean he’s on the bank. Instead he’s on a shoal that’s covered by only about 3 feet of water. 

The river is wicked rough, but oddly it looked smoother over the shoal. Not flat, mind you, but it’s not the 4-footers sloshing around I’m the deeper water. 

BASSTrakk shows home with a single 1 1/2-pounder, but he just missed another fish.
