this should be fun......

depends on whether you plumbed the swim and know it is a good swim. If it is , then stick it out, if not you suck

Change spots...Unless I see signs of fish. Two days should be time to get something if there are fish in the area. This isn't Europe.

He zach is back great...I normaly spend the first couple of days mooving around alot on a new lake( move every day)
Put my bivy at a strategic point so I can overlook a big part of it..and look 24/7 for signs of feeding carp..like fish jumping
Then I bait up small amounts in 4-5 passibel swims and just roam them of until one swim jumps out
Then I just fish that swim and dont give up until I find a better option...but that can take weeks or even months and not 2 days

Leave White Rock and go home.

There are some lakes around here that you won't catch a fish most of the time, but when you do it will be 30#+

stick it out another day or 2. it is called fishing

I guess it depends on the situation. If the lake, or a certain spot, is proven by others to have fish in it then I go about it differently than if it is a new lake all together that I know nothing about. I'm more patient if I know fish have been caught there before.

And NOT catching

that is part of exploring. Take the lake in Mexico where those guys fished it for days and blanked only to get a 40 on the next trip

I dunno; never fished a lake for two days!

Please note that zach is
A actualy been fishing now outside in the fresh air
B Been blanking for 2 days on a new lake..great zach
Maybe its time for a staderd hair rig without those fancy rings..it improves catches you know lol

After 2 Days of blanking, the only option would be to add a little more Captain to your Coke.

forget the coke.

Leave White Rock Caney Creek and go home.

I'd stick it out. Find any feature and go with more localized baiting. Or perhaps not bait at all and just go with a method feeder. Might mean very few fish but that could equal some good size. Years ago some twat taught me that when specimen hunting its better to blank than to catch a lot of small fish. Its proven true time and time again. Think Athens mate.

I'd start throwing dynamite in and see what pops up.....

or maybe make a "phone call" with an old phone ?

Don't know, its never happened......












At White Rock

More Beer!

Day 3: I’d start by finding three or four likely looking swims, bait each one and then visit them in rotation.

I’d be baiting up with a mixture of 4 and 6mm pellets, hemp and 10mm boilles – some chopped, some crumbed and some whole, for the hook I have either boilies or 10mm pellets.

I am with Bubba... It's all about the beer... The fishing is secondary.

Try fishing a lake in france for a whole week paying $500 for the privalige and still blanking

Mind you the fact that i was going though a case of wine every 2 days may have had something to do with it LOL

if you dont have luck halfway into your second trip, go to your spot where you know you catch!

Only 4 fish for me during the first 15 days and nights on this lake to be exact, and then 29 fish in the last two sessions with ten 30's and two 40's...

If you know there are big fish in there, you just need to fish it hard without given up.

Hey Mario que paso?

Finally have some more time now. Just hired some people and it's taking some pressure off.

I'm preparing already for next spring session to The Lioness...

I don't know how you could stay away. Incredible fish Mario, can't wait to read the story.

For those who don't visit CAG here is a teaser of a few of Mario's fish

lol, that tiny fish on top is a 31 lb.
