For starters I've just started fishing again recently and am still learning. My fishing reports might be way off from other people. Secondly I don't all the technical names die baits/lures I use abs may mis identify a fish from time to time. Any tips and input are welcome.
Made it out to the lake at 530 this morning. Started off with a gulp cappuccino colored worm on a Texas rig no bites in that so I went ahead and moved to a storm natural colored shad. After still not getting any nibbles I started trying a few different shads in my tackle box trying several different retrieves. At 800 I pulled my minnow trap in that I had set with hot dog and bread with an empty trap. I had some luck last week in this spot with a clear/blue shad catching 3 smaller lmb but nothing today. After pulling in my minnow trap I moved to a different cove on government wash. Was there till noon still not even a nibble. Just an off day for fishing I suppose.
