I'm a big fan of the Heddon Torpedo and the Rapala Skitter Prop for topwater prop baits. Throw them out, give them about a one foot jerk, let it rest for 2-3 seconds, and repeat.
Water is likely around 80* in Indiana where you are. They're not spawning now, just likely feeding.
I know here in PA, the catfish are spawning right now. But they're about the last fish to spawn.
^^^ He's right. Could be a number of different things. Is the water high? Is the water very muddy? Have you had better success at this spot in years past?
Both are great reels, but I'd say go with the Curado I. It's got all the new bells and whistles. Plus I'm going to bet Shimano disontinues the Chronarch E, seeing as the Curado I is $20 cheaper, and then the Chronarch Ci4 is $70 more. Just doesn't make sense for them to keep it around much longer.
