Oh and get a camera dag gone it, I am just a sucker for fish pics : ) - The photos will also help you chronicle your adventures for family and friends! - Ok still a bunch of hot air, I just want to see pics!

11/19/2011 11:15:00 PMMost fishermen know the feeling. I've been watching fish swim by my lure for a couple months now too. Hard to know what you're doing wrong. I think I just figured out I'm not fishing holding water. Fishing convenient spots doesn't necessarily mean the fish are going to stick around long enough to try your offering. Best advice I've been given is if you don't catch something in a spot, move along to another place. Don't waste time on a bad location.
