It's a post cold front day in May 2020. I show minute by minute video of how thumping brings the fish under the boat, only to find out they're not interested in what we have to offer. Even more frustrating is seeing them on Livescope playing with the lures, but being non-committal. You'll see pretty cool footage of an underwater bridge with fish all over it; again, nothing taking. Arghhhh! We only boated 30 fish today; just enough for dinner, and had to work for each and every fish. Hopefully you'll get a sense that thumping does bring them in; and catching is another thing. Tim

It looks like an iron bridge but it is only 2' tall according to your graph. I wonder if it could be something else. Looks like an extension ladder stuck in bottom on edge[thats crazy I know]. Maybe Fort Hood contraband. Any way thanks for posting a video when you cant catch many even when you know they are there. Had the same kind of day Monday on Buck. Makes me feel better at your expense[ I'm sorry]. I know you will be back with a vengence.

Good video, Tim. That's why I don't have livescope cuz of the added "i see you" cussing frustration! Ha! Lockjaw fish happened to me more in deeper waters and wind changes also. I just go hunt in less deep waters. Making videos is time consuming. Thanks for sharing

Brad It definitely is not huge. I assumed a bridge, but you may be right; maybe it’s some other structure. It was near a road, so I assumed it was a bridge. As you can see, it was loaded, and I’m sure it’ll pay off sometime in the future. Thanks Tim

Your recognition of making videos being time consuming is appreciated. I’ll make it to Dallas to fish on you BW sometime! Tim
