I've had 3 short mid day trips out there this month and haven't caught a fish. Anyone having any luck? If so, care to share tips?

Just fished a tournament there this weekend. I tried deep almost all day. On caught 4 slot fish and a crappie. Then we went shallow and could not get bit. The best pattern we found late was to throw cranks at the deeper piers.

Poor guy couldnt buy a bite. Dont let him fool you though, the other two of us caught some We didnt catch any size. Caught them all on red rattle traps and worms.
