MWscot72, I for one am thankful for your posts. I do not feel you were hot spotting. I was at Rockport Sat. and got skunked! I moved around and looked. I avoided the crowds. No one I talked to caught fish!
Years ago, BigfFish used to be a very helpful website. People would report their success, what depth, color and bait they were using. You could read about catching at a variety of lakes, learn the ice conditions, etc. People were so helpful to give advice to help others be successful. Not I am about ready to stop participating in this sight. It has become next to useless for information, conditions, etc. People get all worked up about such simple things. Fishing is not like big game hunting or fowl hunting. There is such a limited number of game and reproduction is so limited. Most of our fish are planted, few are native. Many are over populated. I remember when there were thousands of people ice fishing on Rockport. They did this for several years. The perch still are not wiped out! In fact, the size actually got larger, though the numbers of dinks caught were less!
Thank you to those willing to notify of the conditions, share depths and effective bait/jig, etc. That's OK if you don't give the GPS location of your hole, that location can vary regardless!
