Nothing would work this morning. I tried all my usually successful flys and techniques to no avail. Went over to a weed bed and got a few mini sunfish but nothing to excite me.
Months ago, I tied up some booby but never really had much luck, but in desperation I thought I'd try one. Found a spot 20ft deep and started using a sunrise pattern right on the bottom. Meh, first several cast, nada. Finally felt just a little tick of a strike. So I tried the same spot again and bam, a nice chunky rainbow leaping about. Three cast later the same. Well, the show was over after that, but at least I salvaged some of the day by trying one more thing..
