Pole numbers

It was funny the other night. One after another told me how they found no fish. All were watching pole numbers as they rode on the ditch.
Me I'm a dumby. I could care less what the pole number was. I watched the water. I'm peddling along an then I see a swirl. Good one too. Full moon an all you can see a lot. My brakes sqeek an I stop. Another swirl then another. I'm alone. Nice. Took a couple seconds or so to get down where it was safe to cast without breaking my neck. Ist cast with a white super spook. Nothing. Second cast an half way in slam the spook fell into a hole an I was on. She went out then back n forth. 50 lb braid an tight drad on a Saltiga an she was in fairly quick. 34 in an fat. Off she went to get bigger. Still alone next cast 38 in. 2 more cast nothing then a 24 in on the teaser. Another cast an a double header both in the low 30 in range. Love my teasers.5 fish later the current picked up an it was over. A freind watched the last 2 fish an enjoyed the show. He asked how'd you find the fish. My reply I didn't give a damn what the poles looked like nor their number. Found the fish by watching the water. The fish don't give a damn what number is on the pole just how much bait they can corral.Was fun and listened to many storyies of wo the next day by those that went fishless. Night is the place an try to mix it up. nothing over 38 in but it was fun.
