• For sure Complicated

    I went on a little adventure with a bud yesterday to a spot I have not visited in 2 years ,we met up with the local crew and the fish were supposed to know and cooperate . This was not the case . the 6 of us struggled to get bit . the portable graph said they were under us in numbers .
    I tried about 20 different colors and sizes and ONLY one bait got bit ! and to make it worse after I changed up over and over I went back to it and it got bit some more !
    Why are these fish so complicated I ask ya …...and then so uncomplicated ?
    Some days its chicken and some days it chicken feathers I suppose .
    the funny thing is I wouldn't have picked this particular bait out of the arsenal but when I got there I needed a heavier presentation and put it on with a larger jighead .
    sometimes I just don't get it , I think in 2 hours the 6 of us only managed about 20 keepers and about that many plus a few on toss backs .
    Some only managed 1 or 2 fish and if it wasn't a fairly dark color it wasn't something the fish were interested in .
    And yet another fyi , scent played no role in it either , I tried all the scents I had and none worked . Only this jig bare and ever so slightly rising from about 25 foot down in 35 foot of water …..
    AND on a final note ,the minnow folks got ZERO bites ….what the heck right ?
    back to the drawing board I guess

      I guess they wasn't very hungry.

      Some days they are finicky as a cat. Sure we all have been through this. You stuck with changing til you got some way to go.

      You did well getting something to bite when they are not cooperating. Chalk it up to a success!
