Might be a tough day for banking it. No wind might mean no fish.

I have been moving up and down the "fishing pier" here....absolutely nothing. Feel like a wasted money on this bait today.

ok I'm no expert, ESPECIALLY when it comes to stinkbait, but it seems like the water would be to cold for the smell to really disperse well.
Have you considered changing baits maybe cut or live bait?

Go over to the Arkansas ramp and fish there...deeper water nearby. Bowman Springs may be too shallow for now. Channels don't spawn until water gets into 70's.

I understand your frustration but I would love to be able to just be out there and have the chance at it skunk or not-- Bet I'm not the only one. I hope it changes for ya though!
