Humbling Sunday.......

[Lifes2Short]

Went out today with Olfishead and had one of those humbling days after slaying them for the last three months.
Lost jigs-9
Crappie caught-3
Hours on the water-8
Very tough day for us today!

 However it was a beautiful day on the water and it’s always good to fish with a member of the OA family!

I would have thought it would be down in the mid to upper 30's with those frigid temps we had earlier in the week.

We also had a rough day looking for bass.  Both of us were skunked in 4 hours Sunday morning.  Marked lots of fish off swings in 30-40ft but they wanted no part of what we were selling.  Couldn't even pick up a fish on shaky heads and jigs on main points and swings.  Never saw temp above 40.5 up river from mutton.

Wow.  That makes me glad that I went south.  We had 2 hours of no bites fishing down from Cape Fair.  I pulled up and headed for James River.  We used A rigs, Ned, grubs, spoons, under spins, swim baits and shaky.  We had 8 bass all on green pumpkin shaky.
