Beautiful Friday but Tough

I started out in the early morning looking for an A rig bite.  Put in at State Park and fished close by.  Good keeper in just a few casts.  2 hours later no more bites.  I ran up the river above High Pt.  Fished a lot of good looking stuff with Arig, rock crawler, jig, and spinner bait.  Not one bite so I moved back down to clear water and started fishing a new craw that I made.  I had one on in about 15 fow but it came unbuttoned.

I went back to the Arig for another hour then pulled out the little guy.  I had a nice keeper on the first cast and though "game on".  Not so,  I never had another bite.  I left frustrated in mid afternoon to go mow the yard.  I did not talk to anyone but had to wait in line to load as half the parking lot had decided to go home also.  Let's see pre spawn cold front blue bird sky not many bites, I wonder if there is a pattern there?

I don't know ?? It was one of those " I think I will sell my boat" days for me. here is my thinking...maybe when there is a large influx of water or a major temperature change, the fish, maybe all fish go into a shock as they adjust to changing water conditions,  after their bodies adjust for a day or so, they stay on the bottom.

Or the suckers feed all night in the bushes under a full moon. now they are full in the day. 

I think I followed the same path you did on the lake, thinking warmer water down south would yield more fish....not so.
