Glad I didn't go to your spot yesterday because I had 3 fish yesterday AM.
I got to my spot at o dark 30 and had the whole area to myself until it began to get light.Then got surrounded by 2 guys to my left and 2 more to my right.
2 small keepers on a bottle darter then a spook, 1 more on a jig.
Mike is right, fish are on tiny bait. And their little brains are focused on that, they would not touch my pencils, I only had one interested in all the time I threw topwater.

times like those I even try tin
I bet a teaser in front of a tin would do well

crowds love the easy fishing

...and that is why God invented teasers. I have been doing OK, not great with size but OK with red gills and eels. When they get focused on small bait like sand eels thay will slam an eel if there is a teaser with it. Something about the competetive instinct.

No boat, back in the suds.

Right on Paul...
In the last week a simple $3 Red Gill has taken more bass than anything else in the bag. Best one week stretch of numbers I've ever taken part in.

New age canal fishermen=Pavlov's dogs....spoiled ones at that.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

That's probably more of it than anything---** and June.

Rainy day and I'm bored...

Sometimes bikes and pencil poppers by day simply don't work.

Change yer tactics...

Try salmon eggs.
