Over the years I have noticed how the bite gets slower day by day in July every summer and by the Dog Days of Summer (1st part of August) fish won’t bite much of anything at all. Plastic baits don’t work very well in late July and especially August. But fish will bite fresh live baits. I have heard some wild reasons why this is happens every summer and would appreciate your opinions.
Why does the bite always slow down in July every summer and seems to stop in August?
By the beginning of October the bite is improving and fish will start biting plastic baits again.
Funny deal.
