Check out the thread title for today's algebra lesson in honor of the first day of school! Went to Black Hills Saturday morning 8/25. It was cool and clear with a nice breeze. Either the fish were not active or I just never found them, or what type of lure, presentation they wanted.
The water had a really good stain to it. This is a little unusual for Black Hills that generally runs gin clear in late summer.
I tried spinnerbaits, shallow cranks, deep cranks, jig and craw, beetle spin, fluke weighted and unweighted, and a weighted wacky worm.
In three hours I had one bite on the wacky worm. He hit right up against deep standing timber. It was a good fish and I got him halfway to the yak and he got unbuttoned.
That was it.
These are the teachable moments of fishing. It's why it's called "fishing" an not "catching".
