When I use to fish for crappies years ago I fished suspended fish on chanel breaks flats ect and would have some realy good days. Went boatless for a few years do to moves and have now purchased a new boat and I am back at it again in my retirement years. However now I can not catch a suspended fish to save my sole. It seems if you are
not in or around brush I cant catch nothing? My friends say it is because of all the brush biles that have been put in the lake. I use to find them on my depth finder and verticle fish them or drift the flats depending on the time of year.
What has changed is it me? The old ways just dont work any more and I can not figure out why?? I can find them but not catch them. Any insite.

Thanks Robert
