I read the last 10 or so entries. I am glad that it is not my imagination or my fishing ability. I thought I started too late but I can see that may not have been the problem. I did suffer the one where you sit there and watch the flasher and insist you (I) can make them bite.After all I have all the old and new lures. I have fished with some of the best this year and they suffered the same fate. Sooner or later it will turn on. That is a definite maybe.
