i havent been getting any strikes is part of the problem, ive spent alot on lures of different colors and, and tried fast, slow, sporadic retrieve, stop and go, twitching, anything i can think of. i watch youtube to see how others are doing it and mimic them as close as i can and i read everyday on here. i even changed my lines to see if it would help. nada. i must have 20 different plastics. from big bite to senkos , and alot of havoc stuff in different colors. the last fish i caught was on a black fluke during the spawn
