The stocks are down. Has been by far the worse I've seen in all my holes that usually produce except one for a short period.

Mean no disrespect but I think its your location. I have not seen a drop in my catches for 5 yrs in a row, if anything its getting better or Im just learning more and getting better "reading" my past log books. Probably a little of both. I did get a big SKUNK last night which I blame on bright moon,flat water and the fact that I was teaching my wife how to hook a eel,cast,retrieve,stuck in rocks,repeat. More of a night of gentle fishing rather than 200-300 cast marathon. Can I ask where your fishing, well, general location?

Let's just say I cover a very large area.
Also, I'm shockd at some fisherman's mentality. If I was doing well fishing every night, but there were many other fishermen stating their numbers were way down, I would be concerned. It seems like some of you guys think that as long as you are still catching, everything is fine. I just don't understand you thinking. What are you going to do when you start getting skunked every night? It will eventually start happening to you, but there will be other people saying they are doing fine and on and on and on it will go until there are none left.
