Hello all - first post on this great forum.
I'm from the Lehigh Valley (Easton, Bethlehem, Allentown, Poconos) area of PA.
Ok, so I've been fishing with top-water frogs - a Booyah "Pad Crasher". I landed two(2) the first night I bought it. No trouble, no fuss.
That was in early June. I haven't hooked one since. Each night I fish at a place called Minsi Lake and get about 3-5 huge bites and can't set the hook to save my life. I even wait "1 Mississippi-2 Mississippi" then set it. It SEEMS to be solid, then poof! nothing....
Now, to add insult to injury, the fishing seemed to slow WAY down. Some nights, not even a single hit.
I'm fishing the same spots, same time, same lures. Zilch!!
Each night, I promise that I'm quitting fishing forever and taking up knitting. But each night, I decide to go back and try again, LOL.
Does fishing slow down in August, or is it the fact that the lake is 3' (under, due to draining for spillway repairs?)
SO much hydrilla, it isn't even funny.
What's going on?
*frustrated*
