It was like we had our boat in the middle of a boiling pot of water with all the fish busting all around us. We threw everything we had and never got bit for as long as the fish stayed up. What's up with that? We're still confused as to why they wouldn't eat anything we threw. I guess when you have that much real bait, there isn't a reason to hit anything that looks suspicious.
I would guess you found some fish feeding on fry and what you were throwing didn't match the hatch. Sometimes it doesn't matter, sometimes I think it does.
