Dead as a Hammer!

Normally, this forum touts fishing success, which is the way that it should be. However, for general information, at least in West Tennessee, I experienced the worse outcome that I have ever seen during the warm seasons. Went to Beech lake with crickets and zero bites. None! Normally, just about anywhere/anytime you can usually at least catch some dink sunfish, or least lose baits to them. Not this morning. So, came back to Graham in late morning on the way home. Same result. Kicker is that I have been doing well on perch and bluegills at Beech, recently, just about every time out.East North East wind. In my experience, usually spells bad. It did.

Don't you know life is too short to fish with a dead cricket?!?!

. . . . . East wind.

My worst hunting and fishing days are generally when the wind is in the East. Have traditionally done better fishing with a Southwest wind; better deer hunting with a Northwest wind.

It's the cold front, I fished all day yesterday in 3 spots and barely caught any.

Wes, well they die anyway when impaled on a #6 aberdeen!
And, no question, I do better when the wind is southerly. But, stay home deer hunting when the when is strong from the south.
However, I'm challenged. I may go today in the rain, just to see if things have improved.
