Sometimes you have to relearn a spot every year.
Just study an area and keep at it. You'll find what works. What, when, where, how. Keep working it.
I once told someone where 20 & 30 pound fish were the night before - the guy went - got skunked, and called me a liar.

As someone who has frequently showed up a day late, that happens.

Sounds like you were at a inlet, not many better places to be this time of year than a dropping inlet... Keep at it - if it was easy it would not be so worth it

John, one of your old favorite spots has given up some decent fish recently on like you said, a dropping tide.
