You Guys Ever Have Days Where You Fish For 2-4 Hours Without A Bite?

This is not that uncommon especially if you fish public waters such as the one I do most of my fishing on. Things such as fishing pressure or a change in weather can really have an effect on this.

Some of you fish for like 14 hours?! dang. well I suppose if you had a boat with food and everything and it was nice outside...

Anywho, I very rarely go 2 hours without even a bite. But it depends a lot on the lake. There's this one lake I just don't go to anymore because Im semi convinced there are no more bass in it After an hour and a half of no bites I go home, but I fish from shore and don't go through all the work of getting a boat out, etc. It can be longer if I'm making an actual camping trip out of it, but I don't do that much anymore.

If I know the bass are there/there's a structure I'll fish it for at least 20 minutes, so a lot more than 10 casts. I probably catch an average of 1 bass every 90 minutes. My record is 4 in an hour (for a normal lake, once I fished an unstable lake where the fish were starving and pulled in one every 5 minutes...that actually got old fast, no sport in it).
