I really needed to get out turkey scouting tonight but the water was persuading me otherwise. After two hours I was fishless and thinking I had chosen the wrong activity.
Not wanting to go fishless two nights in a row I motored to one of the most consistent fish catching spots I knew of. After just a couple of casts it was fish on. I was very surprised at how many fish I did catch here, after all I was hitless at all the other spots I had tried. It just goes to show; do not give up and somewhere fish are waiting to be caught.
