Chances are you didn't find the fish. On really tough days, they seem to key on certain areas and you just gotta find out where those spots are. Second thing is bait. I have seen days where I would not have caught a single fish if I hadn't lucked into tying on a particular color combo. The good news is, the spots are usually the same, and there are a couple color combos that will work when nothing else will. Hang in there it just takes time.
