Well I should start by letting you know this was only my second time out using a kayak to fish, so there is a good chance my technique is lacking.
I started around 6am and fished through till 10am with not so much as a strike. The fish were there and you d it necessary to jump now and again just to smite me. I tried a yellow flat fish lure for the first hour and moved onto a crankbait for a short time but had no luck with either. I moved onto a gold and brown rooster tail and still didn't improve my luck. For the last hour I tried using a Macks double whammy in pink and weighted the line to get some added depth. No luck. I attempted all while paddling a pretty steady pace and tried some different depths, but just couldn't convince the fish to bite.
As I stated before, this was only my second time out on the kayak and I am new to fishing so I could be going about this all wrong. None the less the lake was quiet aside from a short burst of Girl Scouts in canoes.
